IBKR can maintain its low commission structure because we have built automated trade processes to minimize human intervention and discretion. In this respect, we have established some simple terms which govern trading in all IBKR accounts. These rules recognize that from time to time, due to their nature, electronic systems, which often rely on third party connectivity, may fail or be delayed and exchanges and data providers may make errors.

• Clients are obligated to accept all executions that are consistent with the instructions specified in clients' orders.
• Although we believe our failure rate is among the lowest in the industry, any system may fail at one time or another, often by reason of forces beyond human control. IBKR is not liable for system or network failures, and clients who require the highest level of reliability agree to maintain secondary trading facilities.
• Clients are responsible for protecting the confidentiality of their usernames, passwords and security devices, and they will be responsible for trades entered by third parties using their credentials.
• In the event trades are confirmed by IBKR as executed, and they are later cancelled by an exchange, trading network or regulatory authority, the IBKR confirmed trade will also be deemed cancelled.
• IBKR generally processes orders in the order in which it receives them, including all orders submitted by IBKR or its affiliates.
• IBKR is not responsible for ensuring the execution of orders at limit prices if the order's transmission is delayed or is otherwise affected by data communication failure.
• IBKR may terminate a client's use of IBKR's services at any time in IBKR's sole discretion without prior notice to the client. IBKR may also decline to accept, to execute or to cancel any client order, or may otherwise restrict, in whole or in part, a client's use of IBKR's services at any time, for any length of time, in IBKR's sole discretion, without prior notice to the client.
• IBKR does not provide trading, investment or tax advice, and clients shall not rely on statements by IBKR employees or statements on the IBKR website which could be construed as providing such advice.
• IBKR generally does not make margin calls, and IBKR maintains the right to close out positions at any time (including immediately), in any manner, and through any market or dealer, without notice or liability, in any account that does not have sufficient funds to meet the account requirements imposed by IBKR or by regulatory authorities (whether these are margin requirements for margin-enabled accounts or the requirement to maintain a positive account balance for cash accounts), or else to satisfy any applicable fees that you owe to IBKR.
• Although IBKR maintains the right to liquidate positions in under­margined accounts, it owes no duty to clients to conduct such liquidations. Clients will not rely on IBKR's liquidation rights and auto-liquidation systems to function as a stop-loss order.
• Notwithstanding the above, if for any reason you fail to meet the account requirements and IBKR does not liquidate your positions but instead issues you with a margin call, you must satisfy such margin call immediately in the manner specified by IBKR. IBKR, in its sole discretion, will determine if it issues you with a margin call or if it liquidates your positions to address the margin violation.
• You are responsible to IBKR for the continued accuracy and updating of all information provided to IBKR.
• IBKR clients agree to keep IBKR informed of their current email address, so they will be in a position to read and receive emails addressed to them by IBKR.

DISCLOSURE OF RISKS OF MARGIN TRADING

Interactive Brokers (“IB”) is furnishing this document to you to provide some basic facts about purchasing securities and futures contracts on margin, and to alert you to the risks involved with trading in a margin account. “Margin trading” can mean engaging in a transaction in which securities are purchased partially through a margin loan extended to you by IB, for which the securities act as collateral. Margin trading can also mean trading investment products such as futures or options in which an initial “margin” deposit is made to secure your obligations and further margin may be required to secure your obligations as the value of your positions changes.

This document also describes special risks associated with trading on margin in an IRA account, as described below.

Before trading stocks, futures or other investment products in a margin account, you should carefully review the margin agreement provided by IB and you should consult IB regarding any questions or concerns you may have with your margin accounts.

When you purchase securities, you may pay for the securities in full or you may borrow part of the purchase price from IB. If you choose to borrow funds from IB, you will open a margin account with the firm. The securities purchased are IB’s collateral for the loan to you. If the securities or futures contracts in your account decline in value, so does the value of the collateral supporting your loan, and, as a result, IB can take action, such as sell securities or other assets in any of your accounts held with IB or issue a margin call, in order to maintain the required equity in the account.

You should understand that pursuant to the IB Margin Agreement, IB generally will not issue margin calls, that IB will not credit your account to meet intraday margin deficiencies, and that IB generally will liquidate positions in your account in order to satisfy margin requirements without prior notice to you and without an opportunity for you to choose the positions to be liquidated or the timing or order of liquidation.

In addition, it is important that you fully understand the risks involved in trading securities or futures contracts on margin. These risks include the following:

• You can lose more funds than you deposit in the margin account. A decline in the value of securities or futures contracts that are purchased on margin may require you to provide additional funds to IB or you must put up margin to avoid the forced sale of those securities or futures contracts or other assets in your account(s).
  
  
• IB can force the sale of securities or other assets in your account(s). If the equity in your account falls below the maintenance margin requirements, or if IB has higher “house” requirements, IB can sell the securities or futures contracts or other assets in any of your accounts held at the firm to cover the margin deficiency. You also will be responsible for any shortfall in the account after such a sale.
  
  
• IB can sell your securities or other assets without contacting you. Some investors mistakenly believe that a firm must contact them for a margin call to be valid, and that the firm cannot liquidate securities or other assets in their accounts to meet the call unless the firm has contacted them first. This is not the case. As noted above, IB generally will not issue margin calls and can immediately sell your securities or futures contracts without notice to you in the event that your account has insufficient margin.
  
  
• You are not entitled to choose which securities or futures contracts or other assets in your account(s) are liquidated or sold to meet a margin call. IB has the right to decide which positions to sell in order to protect its interests.
  
  
• IB can increase its “house” maintenance margin requirements at any time and is not required to provide you with advance written notice. These changes in firm policy often take effect immediately. Your failure to maintain adequate margin in the event of an increased margin rate generally will cause IB to liquidate or sell securities or futures contracts in your account(s).
  
  
• If IB chooses to issue a margin call rather than immediately liquidating undermargined positions, you are not entitled to an extension of time on the margin call.
  
  
• You will pay interest on your margin loan at the rates disclosed on the IB website, which can increase or decrease over time. These margin interest costs reduce your return on investment. For details on IB's margin rates, please visit ibkr.com/margin.
  
  
• Special Risks of Trading on Margin in an IRA Account:
  
  
  • Margin Trading in an IRA Account May Not Be Suitable Depending on Your Financial Circumstances. Trading requiring margin (including futures trading and short option trading) involves a high degree of risk and may result in a loss of funds greater than the amount you have deposited in your IRA account. You must determine whether trading on margin in an IRA account is advisable based on your financial circumstances, your tolerance for risk, the number of years until your retirement, and other factors. You should consult a professional financial advisor to determine if margin trading in your IRA account is consistent with your financial goals.
    
    
  • You Must Closely Monitor Your Account and Your Trading to Avoid Adverse Tax Consequences: Trading requiring margin (including futures trading and short option trading) may require the deposit of additional funds to your account to maintain sufficient margin. At the same time, provisions of the Internal Revenue Code place limits on the amount of funds that can be deposited to an IRA account. Deposits to the account in excess of such limits may cause adverse tax consequences, including but not limited to, forfeiture of the tax-advantaged status of the IRA account and/or penalties. As described above, IB will liquidate positions in your account in the event that you cannot or do not deposit sufficient funds to satisfy margin requirements.
    
    
• Special Risks of Short Selling:

  There are additional risks associated with short selling stocks that may expose you to significant losses. This strategy is not suitable for all customers. Fees associated with short selling are available on the IB website.

  Please read the following carefully. For details regarding short-selling at IB, please review the information available on the IB website at https://ibkr.info/article/2880.

  • Short sales must be done in a margin account and are subject to IB's margin requirements. IB may close out your short position by buying the stock if you do not maintain adequate margin in your account. This may expose you to substantial losses if the price of the stock is above the price at which you sold it short. Short selling carries unlimited market risk and could lead to extraordinary losses because you may have to purchase a stock at a higher price than you sold it for in order to cover a short position, and there is no limit to how high the price of a stock can go.
    
    
  • When you sell a stock short IB must lend you the shares either from its own inventory or from shares it sources from various stock-loan counterparties. You are charged interest in connection with borrowing securities in order to maintain a short position. Interest rates paid to, or rates and fees collected from, clients in connection with borrowing or lending securities are subject to frequent change without notice and will vary based on the nature of the security being sold short (i.e., the interest charge to finance a short position in a hard-to-borrow stock may be more costly than a stock that is not hard-to-borrow). Please refer to the IB website for details on short sale costs.
    
    
  • Before selling short, IB must confirm that it can locate shares of the stock to borrow for delivery to the buyer. Borrowed stock is subject to recall without notice. Stock lenders retain the right to recall their stock at any time. IB may buy-in stock on your behalf, without notice to you, to cover short positions in the event that IB cannot borrow stock or re-borrow stock after a recall notice. You are liable for any losses or costs incurred in the event of a buy-in, including any associated trade commissions or fees. Please refer to the IB website for additional details on short selling, recalls and buy-ins.
    
    
  • You may be liable for dividend payments and certain other corporate actions. If you are maintaining a short settled position as of the close of business two business days prior to the Record Date (or one business day prior to the Ex-Dividend date) you will be liable to the lender for the dividend.

Portfolio Margin Risk Disclosure Statement

OVERVIEW OF PORTFOLIO MARGINING

1. Portfolio margining is a margin methodology that sets margin requirements for an account using a "risk-based" pricing model that calculates the largest potential loss of all positions in a product class or group across a range of underlying prices and volatilities. This model, known as the Theoretical Intermarket Margining System ("TIMS"), is applied each night to U.S. stocks, OCC stock and index options, and U.S. single stock futures positions by the federally-chartered Options Clearing Corporation ("OCC") and is disseminated by the OCC to participating brokerage firms each night. Interactive Brokers evaluates margin compliance throughout the trading day based on the current positions in the account and current market prices, but the margin calculations are based on TIMS parameters received the prior evening.
2. The goal of portfolio margining is to set levels of margin that more precisely reflect actual net risk. The customer may benefit from portfolio margining in that margin requirements that are calculated based on net risk are generally lower than alternative “position” or “strategy” based methodologies for determining margin requirements. Lower margin requirements allow the customer more leverage in an account.

CUSTOMERS ELIGIBLE FOR PORTFOLIO MARGINING

3. To be eligible for portfolio margining, customers (other than broker-dealers or members of a national futures exchange) must be approved for writing uncovered options. If a customer (other than a broker-dealer or member of a national futures exchange) wishes to trade in unlisted derivatives, the customer must have and maintain at all times account equity of not less than five million dollars, aggregated across all accounts under identical ownership at the carrying broker-dealer and/or its US-regulated affiliated broker-dealers or Futures Commission Merchants. This identical ownership requirement excludes accounts held by the same customer in different capacities (e.g., as a trustee and as an individual) and accounts where ownership is overlapping but not identical (e.g., individual accounts and joint accounts). In addition to the requirements of the self-regulatory organization rule, carrying broker-dealers may have their own minimum equity requirement and possibly other eligibility requirements.

POSITIONS ELIGIBLE FOR A PORTFOLIO MARGIN ACCOUNT

4. All margin equity securities (as defined in Section 220.2 of Regulation T of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), warrants on margin equity securities or on eligible indices of equity securities, equity-based or equity-index based listed options, and security futures products (as defined in Section 3(a)(56) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are eligible to be margined in a portfolio margin account. In addition, a customer that has an account with equity of at least five million dollars may establish and maintain positions in unlisted derivatives (e.g., OTC swaps, options) on a margin equity security or an eligible index of equity securities that can be priced by a theoretical pricing model approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

SPECIAL RULES FOR PORTFOLIO MARGIN ACCOUNTS

5. A portfolio margin account may be either a separate account or a sub-account of a customer’s standard margin account. In the case of a sub-account, equity in the standard account may be available to satisfy any margin requirement in the portfolio margin sub-account without transfer to the sub-account.
6. A portfolio margin account or sub-account will be subject to a minimum margin requirement of $.375 for each listed option, unlisted derivative and security futures product, multiplied by the contract’s or instrument’s multiplier, carried long or short in the account. Other eligible products are not subject to a minimum margin requirement.
7. A margin deficiency in the portfolio margin account or sub-account, regardless of whether due to new commitments or the effect of adverse market movements on existing positions, must be met within three business days. Failure to meet a portfolio margin deficiency by the end of the third business day will result in a prohibition on entering any new orders, with the exception of new orders that reduce the margin requirement. Failure to meet a portfolio margin deficiency by the end of the third business day will result in the prompt liquidation of positions on the fourth business day, to the extent necessary to eliminate the margin deficiency.
8. Any shortfall in aggregate equity across accounts, when required, must be met within three business days. Failure to meet a minimum equity deficiency by the end of the third business day will result in a prohibition on entering any new orders, with the exception of new orders that reduce the margin requirement, beginning on the fourth business day and continuing until such time as the minimum equity requirement is satisfied, or if applicable, all unlisted derivatives are liquidated or transferred out of the portfolio margin account.
   
   **Please note that pursuant to the IB Customer Agreement, IB reserves the right to liquidate positions prior to the fourth business day. **

SPECIAL RISKS OF PORTFOLIO MARGIN ACCOUNTS

9. Portfolio margining generally permits greater leverage in an account, and greater leverage creates greater losses in the event of adverse market movements.
10. Because the maximum time limit for meeting a margin deficiency is shorter than in a standard margin account, there is increased risk that a customer’s portfolio margin account will be liquidated involuntarily, possibly causing losses to the customer.
11. Because portfolio margin requirements are determined using sophisticated mathematical calculations and theoretical values that must be calculated from market data, it may be more difficult for customers to predict the size of future margin deficiencies in a portfolio margin account. This is particularly true in the case of customers who do not have access to specialized software necessary to make such calculations or who do not receive theoretical values calculated and distributed periodically by an approved vendor of theoretical values.
12. Trading of margin equity securities, warrants on margin equity securities or on eligible indices of equity securities, listed options, unlisted derivatives on margin equity securities or an eligible index of equity securities, and security futures products in a portfolio margin account is generally subject to all the risks of trading those same products in a standard securities margin account. Customers should be thoroughly familiar with the risk disclosure materials applicable to those products, including the booklets entitled “Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options” and “Security Futures Risk Disclosure Statement”. Because this disclosure statement does not disclose the risks and other significant aspects of trading in security futures and options, customers should review those materials carefully before trading these products in a portfolio margin account.
13. Customers should consult with their tax advisers to be certain that they are familiar with the tax treatment of transactions in margin equity securities, warrants on margin equity securities or on eligible indices of equity securities, listed options, unlisted derivatives on margin equity securities or an eligible index of equity securities, and security futures products, including tax consequences of trading strategies involving both security futures and option contracts.
14. The descriptions in this disclosure statement relating to eligibility requirements for portfolio margin accounts, and minimum equity and margin requirements for those accounts, are minimums imposed under the self-regulatory organization rules. Time frames within which margin and equity deficiencies must be met are maximums imposed under the self-regulatory organization rules. Broker-dealers may impose their own more stringent requirements.
15. Customers should bear in mind that the discrepancies in the cash flow characteristics of security futures and certain options are still present even when those products are carried together in a portfolio margin account. In addition, discrepancies in the cash flow characteristics of certain unlisted derivatives may also be present when those products are carried in a portfolio margin account. Both security futures and options contracts are generally marked to the market at least once each business day. Similarly, certain unlisted derivatives may also be marked to the market on a daily basis. However, there may be incongruity between the marking to the market of each eligible product in that marks may take place with different frequency and at different times within the day. For example, when a security futures contract is marked to the market, the gain or loss is immediately credited to or debited from, respectively, the customer’s account in cash. While a change in the value of a long option contract may increase or decrease the equity in the account, the gain or loss is not realized until the option is liquidated, exercised or assigned. Accordingly, a customer may be required to deposit cash in the account in order to meet a variation payment on a security futures contract even though the customer is in a hedged position and has experienced a corresponding (but yet unrealized) gain on an option. Alternatively, a customer who is in a hedged position and would otherwise be entitled to receive a variation payment on a security futures contract may find that the cash is required to be held in the account as margin collateral on an offsetting option position.

The general provisions governing portfolio margining (including definitions used in this document) are set forth in NYSE Rule 431(g) and FINRA Rule 4210(g), which can be found at https://www.nyse.com/regulation/rules and www.finra.org .




ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FOR CUSTOMERS UTILIZING A PORTFOLIO MARGIN ACCOUNT





BY SIGNING BELOW, I/WE AFFIRM THAT I/WE HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THE PORTFOLIO MARGINING RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT.

Interactive Brokers Futures Arbitration Agreement

Any controversy or claim between Interactive Brokers LLC ("IB") and the undersigned ("Customer") arising out of or relating to Customer's Account with IB, to transactions between IB and Customer, to the Customer Agreement with IB or any other agreement between IB and Customer, or to the breach of any such transaction or agreement shall, except as provided below, be resolved by arbitration before a forum chosen in accordance with the procedure set out below. If, by reason of any applicable statute, regulation, exchange rule or otherwise, Customer's advance agreement to submit a controversy to arbitration would not be enforceable by IB, this provision shall not permit Customer to enforce IB's advance agreement to submit to arbitration. Any award rendered in any arbitration conducted pursuant to this agreement shall be final, binding and enforceable in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut and judgment may be entered on any such award by any court having jurisdiction thereof.

At such time as Customer notifies IB that Customer intends to submit a controversy to arbitration, or at such time as IB notifies Customer that IB intends to submit a controversy to arbitration, Customer will have the opportunity to choose a forum from a list of qualified forums provided by IB. A "qualified forum" is an organization whose procedures for conducting arbitrations meet Acceptable Practices established by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC").

As required by CFTC Rule 166.5, IB will pay any incremental fees which may be assessed by a qualified forum for provision of a mixed arbitration panel, unless the arbitrators hearing the controversy determine that Customer has acted in bad faith in initiating or conducting the arbitration. A "mixed arbitration panel" is an arbitration panel composed of one or more persons, a majority of whom are not members or associated with a member, or an employee of the designated contract market (upon which the transaction giving rise to the dispute was executed or could have been executed) and who are not otherwise associated with the designated contract market.

In connection with this Arbitration Agreement, IB is required to furnish to Customer the following statement, pursuant to Rule 166.5 of the CFTC (for the purposes of the following, "you" or "your" means IB's Customer):

THREE FORUMS EXIST FOR THE RESOLUTION OF COMMODITY DISPUTES: CIVIL COURT LITIGATION, REPARATIONS AT THE COMMODITY FUTURES TRADING COMMISSION ("CFTC"), AND ARBITRATION CONDUCTED BY A SELF-REGULATORY OR OTHER PRIVATE ORGANIZATION.

THE CFTC RECOGNIZES THAT THE OPPORTUNITY TO SETTLE DISPUTES BY ARBITRATION MAY IN SOME CASES PROVIDE MANY BENEFITS TO CUSTOMERS, INCLUDING THE ABILITY TO OBTAIN AN EXPEDITIOUS AND FINAL RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES WITHOUT INCURRING SUBSTANTIAL COSTS. THE CFTC REQUIRES, HOWEVER, THAT EACH CUSTOMER INDIVIDUALLY EXAMINE THE RELATIVE MERITS OF ARBITRATION AND THAT YOUR CONSENT TO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT BE VOLUNTARY.

BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, YOU: (1) MAY BE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO SUE IN A COURT OF LAW; AND (2) ARE AGREEING TO BE BOUND BY ARBITRATION OF ANY CLAIMS OR COUNTERCLAIMS WHICH YOU OR IB MAY SUBMIT TO ARBITRATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. YOU ARE NOT, HOWEVER, WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO ELECT INSTEAD TO PETITION THE CFTC TO INSTITUTE REPARATIONS PROCEEDINGS UNDER SECTION 14 OF THE COMMODITY EXCHANGE ACT WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTE WHICH MAY BE ARBITRATED PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT A DISPUTE ARISES, YOU WILL BE NOTIFIED IF IB INTENDS TO SUBMIT THE DISPUTE TO ARBITRATION. IF YOU BELIEVE A VIOLATION OF THE COMMODITY EXCHANGE ACT IS INVOLVED AND IF YOU PREFER TO REQUEST A SECTION 14 "REPARATIONS" PROCEEDING BEFORE THE CFTC, YOU WILL HAVE 45 DAYS FROM THE DATE OF SUCH NOTICE IN WHICH TO MAKE THAT ELECTION.

You need not sign this agreement to open or maintain an account with IB. See 17 CFR 166.5.

BY SIGNING THIS FORM YOU ARE AGREEING TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS LAID OUT IN THIS DOCUMENT.

Risks of After-Hours Trading

There are special characteristics and unique risks associated with trading in securities at times that are outside the ordinary trading hours for the exchange(s) upon which such securities are traded, including trading on overnight trading venues such as the IBKR Eos ATS (in general, "After-Hours Trading" or “Extended Hours Trading”). Customers must familiarize themselves with these risks and determine whether After-Hours Trading is appropriate for them in light of their objectives and experience. Customers are responsible for familiarizing themselves with the hours of the relevant markets upon which they trade and for determining when to place orders for particular securities, how they wish to direct those orders, and what types of orders to use. Interactive Brokers' offer of After-Hours Trading does not constitute a recommendation or conclusion that After-Hours Trading will be successful or appropriate for all customers or trades.

Some risks associated with After-Hours Trading are as follows:

1. Risk of Lower Liquidity. Liquidity refers to the ability of market participants to buy and sell securities. Generally, the more orders that are available in a market, the greater the liquidity. Liquidity is important because with greater liquidity it is easier for investors to buy or sell securities, and as a result, investors are more likely to pay or receive a competitive price for securities purchased or sold. There may be lower liquidity in extended hours trading as compared to regular market hours. As a result, your order may only be partially executed, or not at all.
   
   
2. Risk of Higher Volatility. Volatility refers to the changes in price that securities undergo when trading. Generally, the higher the volatility of a security, the greater its price swings. There may be greater volatility in extended hours trading than in regular market hours. As a result, your order may only be partially executed, or not at all, or you may receive an inferior price in extended hours trading than you would during regular markets hours.
   
   
3. Risk of Changing Prices. The prices of securities traded in extended hours trading may not reflect the prices either at the end of regular market hours, or upon the opening of the next morning. As a result, you may receive an inferior price in extended hours trading than you would during regular market hours.
   
   
4. Risk of Unlinked Markets. Depending on the extended hours trading system or the time of day, the prices displayed on a particular extended hours system may not reflect the prices in other concurrently operating extended hours trading systems dealing in the same securities. Accordingly, you may receive an inferior price in one extended hours trading system than you would in another extended hours trading system.
   
   
5. Risk of News Announcements. Normally, issuers make news announcements that may affect the price of their securities after regular market hours. Similarly, important financial information is frequently announced outside of regular market hours. In extended hours trading, these announcements may occur during trading, and if combined with lower liquidity and higher volatility, may cause an exaggerated and unsustainable effect on the price of a security.
   
   
6. Risk of Wider Bid-Ask Spreads. The bid-ask spread refers to the difference in price between what you can buy a security for (the "offer" or "ask") and what you can sell it for (the "bid"). Lower liquidity and higher volatility in extended hours trading may result in wider than normal bid-ask spreads for a particular security.
   
   
7. Risk of Lack of Calculation or Dissemination of Underlying Index Value or Intraday Indicative Value ("IIV"). For certain Derivative Securities Products, an updated underlying index value or IIV may not be calculated or publicly disseminated in extended trading hours. Since the underlying index value and IIV are not calculated or widely disseminated during the pre-market and post-market sessions, an investor who is unable to calculate implied values for certain Derivative Securities Products in those sessions may be at a disadvantage to market professionals. Additionally, securities underlying the indexes or portfolios will not be regularly trading as they are during Regular Trading Hours, or may not be trading at all. This may cause prices during Extended Trading Hours to not reflect the prices of those securities when they open for trading.
   
   
8. Index Values.The Exchange will not report a value of an index underlying an index option trading during After-Hours Trading Hours, because the value of the underlying index will not be recalculated during or at the close of After-Hours Trading Hours.
   
   
9. Trade Date / Corporate Actions. The trade date for trades in US stocks executed during regular trading hours (i.e., 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. New York time) or during the extended trading hours session (i.e., 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. New York time) is the date on which the order was executed. However, the trade date for trades executed during the overnight trading session (i.e., 8:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m. the following morning) is the date of the morning when the overnight session ends (even if the trade is executed before midnight). Thus, for example, if an account holder purchases a US stock on the day prior to the ex-dividend date during the regular or extended hours sessions they will be entitled to receive the dividend, but if the purchase is made during the overnight session they will not be entitled to the dividend because the trade date for the overnight trade would be on the ex-dividend date.

During After-Hours Trading, Interactive Brokers ("IB") may provide quotations from and execute Customer trades through various Electronic Communications Networks ("ECNs"), exchanges or other trading systems including the IBKR Eos ATS (collectively "After-Hours Trading Facilities"). Quotations provided during After-Hours Trading may be different than quotations provided during exchange trading hours. Likewise, it is possible that the quotations displayed by IB from After-Hours Trading Facilities on which IB can execute Customer trades may be less favorable than those on other After-Hours Trading Facilities to which IB does not have access. Last sale information provided by IB may not reflect the prices of the most recent trades on all of the various After-Hours Trading Facilities.

RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT FOR FOREX TRADING AND IB MULTI-CURRENCY ACCOUNTS

Rules of the U.S. National Futures Association ("NFA") require Interactive Brokers ("IB") to provide you with the following Risk Disclosure Statement:

RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT

OFF-EXCHANGE FOREIGN CURRENCY ("FOREX") TRANSACTIONS INVOLVE THE LEVERAGED TRADING OF CONTRACTS DENOMINATED IN FOREIGN CURRENCY CONDUCTED WITH A FUTURES COMMISSION MERCHANT OR A RETAIL FOREIGN EXCHANGE DEALER AS YOUR COUNTERPARTY. BECAUSE OF THE LEVERAGE AND THE OTHER RISKS DISCLOSED HERE, YOU CAN RAPIDLY LOSE ALL OF THE FUNDS YOU DEPOSIT FOR SUCH TRADING AND YOU MAY LOSE MORE THAN YOU DEPOSIT.

YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF AND CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING POINTS BEFORE DETERMINING WHETHER SUCH TRADING IS APPROPRIATE FOR YOU.

(1) TRADING IS NOT ON A REGULATED MARKET OR EXCHANGE. YOUR DEALER IS YOUR TRADING PARTNER WHICH IS A DIRECT CONFLICT OF INTEREST. BEFORE YOU ENGAGE IN ANY RETAIL FOREIGN EXCHANGE TRADING, YOU SHOULD CONFIRM THE REGISTRATION STATUS OF YOUR COUNTERPARTY.

The off-exchange foreign currency trading you are entering into is not conducted on an interbank market, nor is it conducted on a futures exchange subject to regulation as a designated contract market by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC"). The foreign currency trades you transact are trades with the futures commission merchant or retail foreign exchange dealer as your Counterparty. WHEN YOU SELL, THE DEALER IS THE BUYER. WHEN YOU BUY, THE DEALER IS THE SELLER. As a result, when you lose money trading, your dealer is making money on such trades, in addition to any fees, commissions, or spreads the dealer may charge.

(2) AN ELECTRONIC TRADING PLATFORM FOR RETAIL FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS IS NOT AN EXCHANGE. IT IS AN ELECTRONIC CONNECTION FOR ACCESSING YOUR DEALER. THE TERMS OF AVAILABILITY OF SUCH A PLATFORM ARE GOVERNED ONLY BY YOUR CONTRACT WITH YOUR DEALER.

Any trading platform that you may use to enter off-exchange foreign currency transactions is only connected to your futures commission merchant or retail foreign exchange dealer. You are accessing that trading platform only to transact with your dealer. You are not trading with any other entities or customers of the dealer by accessing such platform. The availability and operation of any such platform, including the consequences of the unavailability of the trading platform for any reason, is governed only by the terms of your account agreement with the dealer.

(3) YOUR DEPOSITS WITH THE DEALER HAVE NO REGULATORY PROTECTIONS.

All of your rights associated with your retail forex trading, including the manner and denomination of any payments made to you, are governed by the contract terms established in your account agreement with the futures commission merchant or retail foreign exchange dealer. Funds deposited by you with a futures commission merchant or retail foreign exchange dealer for trading off-exchange foreign currency transactions are not subject to the customer funds protections provided to customers trading on a contract market that is designated by the CFTC. Your dealer may commingle your funds with its own operating funds or use them for other purposes. In the event your dealer becomes bankrupt, any funds the dealer is holding for you in addition to any amounts owed to you resulting from trading, whether or not any assets are maintained in separate deposit accounts by the dealer, may be treated as an unsecured creditor's claim.

(4) YOU ARE LIMITED TO YOUR DEALER TO OFFSET OR LIQUIDATE ANY TRADING POSITIONS SINCE THE TRANSACTIONS ARE NOT MADE ON AN EXCHANGE OR MARKET, AND YOUR DEALER MAY SET ITS OWN PRICES.

Your ability to close your transactions or offset positions is limited to what your dealer will offer to you, as there is no other market for these transactions. Your dealer may offer any prices it wishes, and it may offer prices derived from outside sources or not in its discretion. Your dealer may establish its prices by offering spreads from third party prices, but it is under no obligation to do so or to continue to do so. Your dealer may offer different prices to different customers at any point in time on its own terms. The terms of your account agreement alone govern the obligations your dealer has to you to offer prices and offer offset or liquidating transactions in your account and make any payments to you. The prices offered by your dealer may or may not reflect prices available elsewhere at any exchange, interbank, or other market for foreign currency.

(5) PAID SOLICITORS MAY HAVE UNDISCLOSED CONFLICTS

The futures commission merchant or retail foreign exchange dealer may compensate introducing brokers for introducing your account in ways which are not disclosed to you. Such paid solicitors are not required to have, and may not have, any special expertise in trading, and may have conflicts of interest based on the method by which they are compensated. Solicitors working on behalf of futures commission merchants and retail foreign exchange dealers are required to register. You should confirm that they are, in fact registered. You should thoroughly investigate the manner in which all such solicitors are compensated and be very cautious in granting any person or entity authority to trade on your behalf. You should always consider obtaining dated written confirmation of any information you are relying on from your dealer or a solicitor in making any trading or account decisions.

FINALLY, YOU SHOULD THOROUGHLY INVESTIGATE ANY STATEMENTS BY ANY DEALERS OR SALES REPRESENTATIVES WHICH MINIMIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF, OR CONTRADICT, ANY OF THE TERMS OF THIS RISK DISCLOSURE. SUCH STATEMENTS MAY INDICATE POTENTIAL SALES FRAUD.

THIS BRIEF STATEMENT CANNOT, OF COURSE, DISCLOSE ALL THE RISKS AND OTHER ASPECTS OF TRADING OFF-EXCHANGE FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS WITH A FUTURES COMMISSION MERCHANT OR RETAIL FOREIGN EXCHANGE DEALER.

PERFORMANCE OF INTERACTIVE BROKERS RETAIL CUSTOMER FOREX ACCOUNTS FOR THE PAST FOUR CALENDAR QUARTERS:

The table below sets forth the percentage of non-discretionary retail forex customer accounts maintained by Interactive Brokers LLC that were profitable and unprofitable for the past four calendar quarters. The accounts were identified and these statistics were calculated according to the definitions and interpretations set forth by the CFTC and NFA¹.

PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT NECESSARILY INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS.

FURTHER INFORMATION PROVIDED BY INTERACTIVE BROKERS:

A. Overview: Interactive Brokers Multi-Currency enabled accounts allow IB Customers to trade investment products denominated in different currencies using a single IB account denominated in a "base" currency of the customer's choosing. IB Customers can also use their Multi-Currency enabled accounts to conduct foreign exchange transactions in order to manage credits or debits generated by foreign securities, options or futures trading, to convert such credits or debits back into the Customer's base currency, or to hedge or speculate. IB foreign exchange transactions offered to retail customers are forex spot transactions.

B. Nature of Your Account and Whether SIPC Covers Foreign Currency: Foreign currency trading at Interactive Brokers takes place in a securities account. Your IB securities account is governed by rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. In addition, IB observes the rules of the National Futures Association in connection with foreign currency trading.

Interactive Brokers LLC is a member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC"). SIPC protects cash and securities held with Interactive Brokers as specified in the Securities Investor Protection Act. SIPC protects cash, including US dollars and foreign currency, to the extent that the cash was deposited with Interactive Brokers for the purpose of purchasing securities. Whether foreign currency in your IB account would be protected by SIPC would depend in part on whether the cash was considered to be deposited with Interactive Brokers for the purpose of purchasing securities. Interactive Brokers expects that at least one factor in deciding this would be whether and the extent to which the customer engages in securities trading in addition to or in conjunction with forex trading, but, as discussed in section 3 above, funds deposited specifically for forex trading have no regulatory protections under NFA rules or CFTC regulations. For further information, you must contact your own legal counsel or SIPC.

Customer money held in the securities account is subject to Securities Exchange Act Rule 15c3-3 governing customer reserve requirements. Although relevant regulations only require computation of the 15c3-3 reserve requirement and associated segregation of customer funds to be performed weekly, IB performs such calculations and segregation on a daily basis.

C. General Risk: Customer understands and acknowledges that buying and selling securities, options, futures and other financial products that are denominated in foreign currencies or traded on foreign markets is inherently risky and requires substantial knowledge and expertise. Customers applying for Interactive Brokers Multi-Currency enabled accounts represent that they are aware of and understand the risks involved in trading foreign securities, options, futures and currencies and that they have sufficient financial resources to bear such risks.

D. Customer Responsibility for Investment Decisions: Customer acknowledges that IB representatives are not authorized to provide investment, trading or tax advice and therefore will not provide advice or guidance on trading or hedging strategies in the Multi-Currency enabled account. Customers must evaluate carefully whether any particular transaction is appropriate for them in light of their investment experience, financial objectives and needs, financial resources, and other relevant circumstances and whether they have the operational resources in place to monitor the associated risks and contractual obligations over the term of the transaction. In making these assessments, IB strongly recommends that Customers obtain independent business, legal, and accounting advice before entering into any transactions.

E. Exchange Rate Risk: Exchange rates between foreign currencies can change rapidly due to a wide range of economic, political and other conditions, exposing the Customer to risk of exchange rate losses in addition to the inherent risk of loss from trading the underlying financial product. If a Customer deposits funds in a currency to trade products denominated in a different currency, Customer's gains or losses on the underlying investment therefore may be affected by changes in the exchange rate between the currencies. If Customer is trading on margin, the impact of currency fluctuation on Customer's gains or losses may be even greater.

F. Currency Fluctuation:  When Customer uses the foreign exchange facility provided by IB to purchase or sell foreign currency, fluctuation in currency exchange rates between the foreign currency and the base currency could cause substantial losses to the Customer, including losses when the Customer converts the foreign currency back into the base currency.

G. Nature of Foreign Currency Exchange Transactions Between Customer and IB: When Customer enters into a foreign exchange transaction with IB, IB, as the counterparty to Customer's trade, may effectuate that transaction by entering into an offsetting transaction with one of IB's affiliates, with another customer that enters quotes into IB's system, or with a third party bank (IB's "Forex Providers"). In such transactions, the Forex Provider is not acting in the capacity of a financial adviser or fiduciary to Customer or to IB, but rather, is taking the other side of IB's offsetting trade in an arm's length contractual transaction. Customer should be aware that the Forex Provider may from time to time have substantial positions in, and may make a market in or otherwise buy or sell instruments similar or economically related to, foreign currency transactions entered into by Customer. IB's Forex Providers may also undertake proprietary trading activities, including hedging transactions related to the initiation or termination of foreign exchange transactions with IB, which may adversely affect the market price or other factors underlying the foreign currency transaction entered into by Customer and consequently, the value of such transaction.

H. Prices on the IB Forex Platforms:  The prices quoted by IB to Customers for foreign exchange transactions on IB's IdealPro platform will be determined based on Forex Provider quotes and are not determined by a competitive auction as on an exchange market. Prices quoted by IB for foreign currency exchange transactions therefore may not be the most competitive prices available. For purposes of maintaining adequate scale and competitive spreads, a minimum size is imposed on all IdealPro orders (USD $25,000 as of June 2023 but this is subject to change at any time). Orders below the minimum size are considered odd lots and limit prices for these odd lot-sized orders are not displayed through IdealPro. Retail leveraged forex orders for odd lot-sized orders are generally executed within 1 pip of the best bid and best offer of the Interbank spread (NBBO). However, if the best quote for such orders is more than 1 pip outside of the NBBO, IB will generally route the order to execute against a bank or dealer bid or offer regardless of the order size in order to get an improved price. Customers may also enter a Request for Quote ("RFQ") on the system. IB will charge transaction fees as specified by IB for foreign currency exchange transactions. IB's Forex Providers will try to earn a spread profit on transactions with IB (differential between the bid and ask prices quoted for various currencies).

I. Price Slippage; Order Cancellation and Adjustment: Prices quoted on IB's system generally reflect the prices at which IB's Forex Providers are willing to trade. Prices quoted on IB's system reflect changing market conditions and therefore quotes can and do change rapidly. As such, when a Customer order is received and processed by IB's system, the quote on IB's platform may be different from the quote displayed when the order was sent by Customer. This change in price is commonly referred to as "slippage." IB generally will not execute a Customer order at a certain price unless IB is able to trade at that price against one of IB's Forex Providers.

If Customer sends an order for a forex transaction to IB's system but Customer's requested price is no longer available and therefore the order is non-marketable, IB will not execute the order then but will place it in IB's limit order book in accordance with Customer's time-in-force instructions. Other customers can then trade against this order when it becomes the National Best Bid and Offer ("NBBO") or IB may execute the order if it becomes marketable based on prices received from IB's Forex Providers.

If Customer sends an order for a forex transaction to IB's system and the current price is more favorable for Customer than what Customer requested in the order, the order will generally be executed at the available better price.

Although IB attempts to obtain the best price for Customer orders on forex transactions, because of the inherent possibility of transmission delays between and among Customers, IB and Forex Providers, or other technical issues, execution prices may be worse than the quotes displayed on the IB platform.

To execute your order, Interactive Brokers engages in back-to-back transactions with one or more counterparties. These counterparties on occasion may cancel or adjust forex trades with us in the event of market or technical problems. In these cases we may have to cancel or adjust forex trades that you have executed.

J. Other Risks: There are other risks that relate to trading foreign investment products and trading foreign currencies that cannot be described in detail in this document. Generally, however, foreign securities, options, futures and currency transactions involve exposure to a combination of the following risk factors: market risk, credit risk, settlement risk, liquidity risk, operational risk and legal risk. For example, there can be serious market disruptions if economic or political or other unforeseen events locally or overseas affect the market. Also, the settlement date of foreign exchange trades can vary due to time zone differences and bank holidays. When trading across foreign exchange markets, this may necessitate borrowing funds to settle foreign exchange trades. The interest rate on borrowed funds must be considered when computing the cost of trades across multiple markets. In addition to these types of risk there may be other factors such as accounting and tax treatment issues that Customers should consider.

Disclosure of Risks of Trading Cryptocurrency Futures And Options

TRADING IN CRYPTOCURRENCY FUTURES OR OPTIONS ("CRYPTO PRODUCTS") IS ESPECIALLY RISKY AND IS ONLY FOR CLIENTS WITH A HIGH RISK TOLERANCE AND THE FINANCIAL ABILITY TO SUSTAIN LOSSES IF CRYPTO-RELATED POSITIONS BECOME UNPROFITABLE. YOU MAY LOSE MORE THAN YOU INVEST.

By applying to trade Crypto Future or Options Products through Interactive Brokers, Client acknowledges and agrees to the following:

1. Client has reviewed the Risk Disclosure for Futures and Options provided on the IB website and understands that the risks described in that Risk Disclosure apply equally or to a greater degree with respect to trading in Crypto Products. Below is a list of some of the possible risks of trading Crypto Products, but there may be other risks that are not specifically mentioned. Client should consult Client's financial advisor before trading Crypto Products.
2. Crypto futures and options are margin products. Therefore losses (or gains) are magnified. Client acknowledges that Client could lose Client's entire investment and that possible losses are not limited to the funds and equity deposited in the account. Client may be required to pay additional funds to Interactive Brokers to cover losses in Crypto Products.
3. Cryptocurrencies are a "virtual" currencies that is not controlled by any sovereign country and the value of which may not be based on any tangible commodity, security, economic measure or legal obligation of a company or government. Apart from the law of supply and demand, there may be no fundamental or economic basis for valuation of cryptocurrencies and their prices may move randomly.
4. The underlying "cash" markets for cryptocurrencies (the product from which Crypto Futures and Options are derived) are largely unregulated and many are offshore. Underlying cryptocurrency markets may not be subject to registration, licensing or fitness requirements, audit trail or trade reporting rules, market integrity rules, wash sale, spoofing or other anti-fraud rules, disaster recovery or cybersecurity requirements, surveillance requirements, or anti-money laundering rules. Because of these factors, Cryptocurrency markets may be unusually susceptible to fraud and manipulation, which could adversely affect the price of Crypto Products.
5. Cryptocurrency prices, including for Bitcoin and Ether, have been highly volatile historically, with sudden and unexpected upward and downward price swings. This increases the risk of trading Crypto Products.
6. If you have a "short" position in a Crypto Product and market price for that Crypto Product rises, your potential loss is not limited. Depending on how quickly the underlying cryptocurreny prices rise, you may be unable to close your short position and therefore you may be unable to stop or limit the losses you are incurring. This is especially true if the exchanges for Crypto Products halt trading because of a sudden price move. You can suffer similar losses if you have a "long" position in Crypto Products and prices fall.

CFTC RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT - Rule 1.55(b)

The risk of loss in trading commodity futures contracts can be substantial. You should, therefore, carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your circumstances and financial resources. You should be aware of the following points:

1. You may sustain a total loss of the funds that you deposit with your broker to establish or maintain a position in the commodity futures market, and you may incur losses beyond these amounts. If the market moves against your position, you may be called upon by your broker to deposit a substantial amount of additional margin funds, on short notice, in order to maintain your position. If you do not provide the required funds within the time required by your broker, your position may be liquidated at a loss, and you will be liable for any resulting deficit in your account.
   
   
2. The funds you deposit with a futures commission merchant for trading futures positions are not protected by insurance in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the futures commission merchant, or in the event your funds are misappropriated.
   
   
3. The funds you deposit with a futures commission merchant for trading futures positions are not protected by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation even if the futures commission merchant is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a broker or dealer.
   
   
4. The funds you deposit with a futures commission merchant are generally not guaranteed or insured by a derivatives clearing organization in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the futures commission merchant, or if the futures commission merchant is otherwise unable to refund your funds. Certain derivatives clearing organizations, however, may have programs that provide limited insurance to customers. You should inquire of your futures commission merchant whether your funds will be insured by a derivatives clearing organization and you should understand the benefits and limitations of such insurance programs.
   
   
5. The funds you deposit with a futures commission merchant are not held by the futures commission merchant in a separate account for your individual benefit. Futures commission merchants commingle the funds received from customers in one or more accounts and you may be exposed to losses incurred by other customers if the futures commission merchant does not have sufficient capital to cover such other customers' trading losses.
   
   
6. The funds you deposit with a futures commission merchant may be invested by the futures commission merchant in certain types of financial instruments that have been approved by the Commission for the purpose of such investments. Permitted investments are listed in Commission Regulation 1.25 and include: U.S. government securities; municipal securities; money market mutual funds; and certain corporate notes and bonds. The futures commission merchant may retain the interest and other earnings realized from its investment of customer funds. You should be familiar with the types of financial instruments that a futures commission merchant may invest customer funds in.
   
   
7. Futures commission merchants are permitted to deposit customer funds with affiliated entities, such as affiliated banks, securities brokers or dealers, or foreign brokers. You should inquire as to whether your futures commission merchant deposits funds with affiliates and assess whether such deposits by the futures commission merchant with its affiliates increases the risks to your funds.
   
   
8. You should consult your futures commission merchant concerning the nature of the protections available to safeguard funds or property deposited for your account.
   
   
9. Under certain market conditions, you may find it difficult or impossible to liquidate a position. This can occur, for example, when the market reaches a daily price fluctuation limit ("limit move").
   
   
10. All futures positions involve risk, and a "spread" position may not be less risky than an outright "long" or "short" position.
    
    
11. The high degree of leverage (gearing) that is often obtainable in futures trading because of the small margin requirements can work against you as well as for you. Leverage (gearing) can lead to large losses as well as gains.
    
    
12. In addition to the risks noted in the paragraphs enumerated above, you should be familiar with the futures commission merchant you select to entrust your funds for trading futures positions. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission requires each futures commission merchant to make publicly available on its Web site firm specific disclosures and financial information to assist you with your assessment and selection of a futures commission merchant. Information regarding this futures commission merchant may be obtained by visiting our Web site, www.interactivebrokers.com.
    
    ALL OF THE POINTS NOTED ABOVE APPLY TO ALL FUTURES TRADING WHETHER FOREIGN OR DOMESTIC. IN ADDITION, IF YOU ARE CONTEMPLATING TRADING FOREIGN FUTURES OR OPTIONS CONTRACTS, YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING ADDITIONAL RISKS:
    
    
13. Foreign futures transactions involve executing and clearing trades on a foreign exchange. This is the case even if the foreign exchange is formally "linked" to a domestic exchange, whereby a trade executed on one exchange liquidates or establishes a position on the other exchange. No domestic organization regulates the activities of a foreign exchange, including the execution, delivery, and clearing of transactions on such an exchange, and no domestic regulator has the power to compel enforcement of the rules of the foreign exchange or the laws of the foreign country. Moreover, such laws or regulations will vary depending on the foreign country in which the transaction occurs. For these reasons, customers who trade on foreign exchanges may not be afforded certain of the protections which apply to domestic transactions, including the right to use domestic alternative dispute resolution procedures. In particular, funds received from customers to margin foreign futures transactions may not be provided the same protections as funds received to margin futures transactions on domestic exchanges. Before you trade, you should familiarize yourself with the foreign rules which will apply to your particular transaction.
    
    
14. Finally, you should be aware that the price of any foreign futures or option contract and, therefore, the potential profit and loss resulting therefrom, may be affected by any fluctuation in the foreign exchange rate between the time the order is placed and the foreign futures contract is liquidated or the foreign option contract is liquidated or exercised.
    
    

THIS BRIEF STATEMENT CANNOT, OF COURSE, DISCLOSE ALL THE RISKS AND OTHER ASPECTS OF THE COMMODITY MARKETS.

I hereby acknowledge that I have received and understood this risk disclosure statement.

Stock Stop Order Disclosure

Interactive Brokers ("IBKR") is furnishing this document to you to provide information about the manner in which stop and stop-limit orders that you submit to IBKR to buy or sell stocks and warrants will be managed.

A stop order is an order to buy or sell a stock once the price of the stock reaches a specified price, known as the stop price. When the stop price is reached, a stop order becomes a market order. A buy stop order is entered at a stop price above the current market price. A sell stop order is entered at a stop price below the current market price. Investors generally use a sell stop order to limit a loss or to protect a profit on a stock that they own.

A stop-limit order is an order to buy or sell a stock that combines the features of a stop order and a limit order. Once the stop price is reached, a stop-limit order becomes a limit order that will be executed at a specified price (or better).

IBKR offers its customers several ways to submit stop and stop-limit orders in stocks and warrants. On most exchanges, IBKR implements and manages stop (or stop-limit) orders in the firm's systems, submitting market (or limit) orders to the exchange when the customer-specified trigger price has been reached and passed. On some exchanges, IBKR may submit stop and/or stop- limit orders using the exchange's native order type. For each exchange on which a customer may trade, IBKR specifies on the IBKR website whether stop and stop-limit orders are managed (i.e., "simulated") by IBKR or submitted using the exchange's native order type. (This information is available under "Order Type" on the page on the IBKR website concerning each exchange.)

For stop and stop-limit orders that IBKR simulates, the order will be triggered and a market (or limit) order will be submitted for execution when the following occurs (unless the customer specifies otherwise when submitting the order):

1. The primary exchange on which the stock trades is open, is holding regular trading hours, and has a valid bid/ask quote for the stock. Regular trading hours are usually between 9:30a.m. - 4:00p.m. Eastern Time, Monday through Friday for U.S. exchange-listed stocks. (Please note that OTCBB- and Pink- listed securities are not subject to these limitations.); and
   
   
2. The last sale price for the specific stock is at or above (for buy stop orders) or at or below (for sell stop orders) the customer's specified trigger price; and
   
   
3. The last trade price is within, or not more than 0.5% outside of, the consolidated bid/ask for the stock.

These additional requirements are subject to change, including the leeway percentage of 0.5% outside of the consolidated bid/ask for the stock. Please check the IBKR website for the most current information.

IBKR also allows customers to customize the manner in which their stop and stop-limit orders are triggered. Customers may change the trigger method to include or exclude certain trigger criteria (e.g., last price, bid/ask, midpoint of bid/ask, regular trading hours only, etc.) based on the customer's specific trading objectives. Information on how to customize the trigger methodology for stop and stop-limit orders is provided on the IBKR website and in the IB Trader Workstation User's Guide.

Important notes concerning stop and stop-limit orders:

1. Native Stop or Stop-Limit Order Types Offered by Exchanges May Differ from the Traditional Order Type. Stop and stop-limit orders submitted using an exchange's native order type may have additional non-standard attributes or be managed in a way different than the traditional definition of a stop or stop-limit order. Please review the exchange's own website and/or contact the exchange for more information about how an exchange may handle a stop or stop-limit order submitted using the exchange's native order type. Among other things, exchanges may include attributes in native stop orders that result in the order not executing at all.
   
   
2. There is No Guarantee That a Stop or Stop-Limit Order Will Be Executed At or Near the Trigger Price or Will Be Executed At All. Please be aware that a stop or stop-limit order may not be triggered or be executed at or near the specified trigger price. Among other things, execution venues may fail to honor their posted prices or may experience delays or failures that may prevent or delay a stop order from being executed. In addition, market events may result in a stop order executing far from the customer's specified trigger price. For instance, in situations where many customers submit a stop order with a similar trigger point or there is a lack of liquidity in the market, a stop order may execute a significant amount away from the specified trigger price and a stop-limit order may not execute at all.

Notice Regarding Pre-Arranged Trading On U.S. Futures Exchanges

Pre-arranged trading results when a discussion is held by market participants prior to trade execution to ensure that a contra party will take the opposite side of a particular order. U.S. futures exchanges, including, but not limited to, CME, CBOT, NYMEX, ICE-US, CFE and Small Exchange, Inc. have regulations regarding the execution of pre-arranged trades. Interactive Brokers customers are responsible to know and abide by ALL exchange restrictions regarding pre-arranged trading. Interactive Brokers customers should not engage in pre-arranged trading unless such transactions are permitted by the relevant exchange. Customers should review the rules of each exchange to determine whether, and under what circumstances, such transactions are permitted. For your reference, various exchange rulebooks can be found at the following websites:

Required Disclosures and Supplemental Agreement for Security Futures Trading at Interactive Brokers

1. Introduction
   This information is being provided to you by Interactive Brokers ("IB") to ensure that you understand the risks inherent in trading security futures and also so that you understand how your security futures account is being handled by IB. You must review this document carefully and sign it at the bottom in order to be approved to trade security futures products through IB.

   You should be aware that security futures are highly leveraged investments and the risk of loss in trading these products can be substantial. Security futures are not suitable for all investors and you must carefully review this document and consult with a financial advisor, if necessary, to determine whether to trade security futures. IB does not provide any investment advice or recommendations, and you will be solely responsible for decisions regarding the security futures trading conducted in your account.

2. Nature of Your Security Futures Account
   Under the federal regulations that apply to security futures, security futures positions may be held in a securities trading account subject to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations or in a commodities trading account subject to Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) regulations.

   Because IB is fully registered with both the SEC and the CFTC, IB offers both securities accounts and commodities accounts. Most securities futures products are held in an IB securities account and are subject to SEC customer protection rules. However, certain securities futures products are held in a commodities account and are therefore subject to CFTC customer protection rules. Additional information regarding whether a particular securities future product is held in a securities or commodities account may be found on IB's website.

   The types of protections offered to investors for securities and commodities accounts are different. The different protections available to securities accounts and commodities accounts are described in Section 6 of the FINRA/NFA Standardized Risk Disclosure for Security Futures Contracts, discussed below.

3. Standardized Risk Disclosure for Security Futures Contracts
   The National Futures Association (NFA) and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) have jointly prepared a Standardized Risk Disclosure for Security Futures Contracts. It contains valuable information regarding trading of security futures contracts and you should review it carefully before investing in security futures.

   To review the FINRA/NFA Standardized Risk Disclosure for Security Futures Contracts, click here.

   NOTE: Viewing the Standardized Risk Disclosure requires Adobe Acrobat. To download Adobe Acrobat, click here. If you wish to receive a hard copy of the disclosure, call IB Customer Service at (877) 442-2757.

4. Supplemental Agreement for Security Futures Trading
   The Supplemental Agreement provisions below relate to security futures trading in Customer' s IB account and are in addition to the terms and conditions of the IB Customer Agreement, and the Customer Agreement is incorporated herein by reference.

   By signing below, Customer acknowledges and agrees to the following:

1. Customer acknowledges that Customer's U.S. and non-U.S. securities futures positions may be held in either a securities or commodities account, in IB's sole discretion. Customer acknowledges that U.S. and non-U.S. listed securities futures held in an IB securities account will receive the regulatory protections of a securities account. Customer acknowledges that U.S. and non-U.S. listed securities futures held in an IB commodities account will receive the regulatory protections of a commodities account.
2. Customer acknowledges that IB may in the future, at its sole discretion, decide to hold customer security futures positions in IB securities accounts or commodities accounts and may not allow customers to make this choice. If IB determines to do this, it will provide required notice to customers of the change.
3. Customer represents that Customer has received and reviewed the FINRA/NFA Standardized Risk Disclosure for Security Futures Contracts.
4. Customer acknowledges that security futures are highly leveraged investments that are not suitable for all investors. Customer acknowledges that IB representatives are not authorized to provide investment, trading or tax advice and therefore will not provide advice or guidance on trading or hedging strategies involving security futures. Customers who need advice or guidance regarding security futures trading or investments should consult a financial advisor.
5. Customer acknowledges that Customer must review and be aware of, and that Customer is bound by, the rules applicable to the trading of security futures, as established by FINRA, the NFA and the security futures exchanges. Customer represents that it is aware of and agrees not to violate any applicable position limits regarding security futures.

Interactive Brokers LLC General Disclosure on Mutual Funds

Important Information Regarding Mutual Funds

1. Interactive Brokers offers customers the ability to invest in certain mutual funds. By making a mutual fund or mutual fund family available to customers, IB does not guarantee the appropriateness or suitability of any mutual fund investment nor do we make any recommendation of any kind.
   
   
2. A mutual fund’s past performance is no indication of future results. A mutual fund’s performance can change over time depending upon a variety of market conditions and share prices can fluctuate on a daily basis. Your investment may be worth more or less than your original cost when you redeem your shares.
   
   
3. IB recommends that customers carefully read the fund’s prospectus prior to investing in the shares of a mutual fund. The prospectus contains important information about the fund’s objectives, investment strategies, risks and expenses. Customers may obtain a copy of a fund’s prospectus by contacting the fund or visiting the fund’s website. Customers may also contact IB Customer Service at (877) 442-2757 to request a prospectus. Please note, IB cannot verify or otherwise guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any mutual fund prospectus, statement of additional information, report to shareholders or proxy solicitation materials.
   
   
4. Certain mutual funds made available through IB invest in international securities. Internationally invested mutual funds can carry certain risks, including, but not limited to, political and economic instability, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, foreign taxes, and differences in regulatory requirements and financial accounting standards. Prior to making an investment decision, customers are encouraged to carefully read the prospectus of any mutual fund that invests internationally.
   
   
5. Some funds may require a minimum holding period for their shares. Some funds charge an early redemption fee if they are sold before a stated holding period ends. Please refer to the fund’s prospectus to see if these conditions apply.
   
   
6. As a mutual fund shareholder, you may receive taxable dividends and/or capital gains on your mutual fund investment. IB does not provide tax advice. Mutual fund investors should consult with their tax advisor in order to determine the impact of taxes on their mutual fund investment.
   
   
7. In addition to Interactive Broker's transaction fee for mutual fund transactions, some mutual funds impose marketing and shareholder servicing fees (e.g., 12b-1 fees). Interactive Brokers may receive a portion of these fees as compensation for shareholder and marketing services rendered. For information regarding a particular mutual fund's payment and compensation practices, please read the fund's prospectus and statement of additional information or visit the fund's website. IB may share a portion of the compensation received from fund companies with your financial advisor.
   
   
8. Mutual Fund Order Deadline. Please note that all mutual fund orders received prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange (generally, 4:00 p.m. EST) will receive the mutual fund’s NAV price for that day provided the order is received on a trading day. Any mutual fund orders received after the close of the New York Stock Exchange will receive the following trading day’s NAV share price. Any mutual fund orders received on days when the New York Stock Exchange is closed (e.g., holidays) will receive the following trading day’s NAV share price.

Disclosure Regarding Trading of Certificates of Deposit

Trading Certificates of Deposit ("CDs"), even those that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company ("FDIC"), has certain inherent risk. Please review and be aware of the following risk factors:

1. Generally speaking, brokered CDs, unlike CDs purchased directly from your bank, cannot be redeemed prior to maturity. Accordingly, if you later decide you want to cash in the CD prior to maturity, you will need to sell the CD on the secondary market. IB cannot guarantee that there will continue to be a secondary market for any CDs you purchase. Even if such a secondary market does continue to exist at the time you wish to sell, there may be very little liquidity available for your CD. If you do choose to sell you may incur a substantial loss as a result, in addition to incurring commissions on such transactions.
2. If market interest rates rise between the time you purchased the CD and the time you sell it, the market value of the CD can be expected to have declined, resulting in a loss of principal.
3. You should carefully read and understand any call features associated with any CD prior to purchasing it. Long-term CDs often include a provision that allows the issuer to call the CD prior to maturity at a specified price. The issuer is most likely to do this in an environment where market interest rates have declined since the CD's issuance.
4. Please note that the CD's offered for trading by Interactive Brokers are not FDIC-Insured.

Penny Stock Trading Risk Disclosure

This disclosure contains additional important information regarding the characteristics and risks associated with trading small-cap (penny) stocks.

What is a "Penny" Stock?

Generally, penny stocks are low-priced shares of small companies that are not traded on an exchange or quoted on NASDAQ. Penny stocks generally are traded over-the-counter, such as on the OTC Bulletin Board or Pink Sheets, and are historically more volatile and less liquid than other equities. For these and other reasons, penny stocks are considered speculative investments and customers who trade in penny stocks should be prepared for the possibility that they may lose their entire investment, or an amount in excess of their investment if they purchased penny stocks on margin. Before investing in a penny stock, you should thoroughly review the company issuing the penny stock. In addition, you should be aware of certain specific risks associated with trading in penny stocks.

Risks Associated With Penny Stocks

There are a number of risks of trading penny stocks, including the following:

You Can Lose All or Much of Your Investment Trading Penny Stocks. All investments involve risk but penny stocks are among the most risky and are generally not appropriate for investors with low risk tolerance. Many penny stock companies are new and do not have a proven track record. Some penny stock companies have no assets, operations or revenues. Others have products and services that are still in development or have yet to be tested in the market. Penny stock companies therefore have a greater risk of failure and those who invest in penny stocks have a greater risk that they may lose some or all of their investment.

Lack of Publicly Available Information. Most large, publicly-traded companies file periodic reports with the SEC that provide information relating to the company's assets, liabilities and performance over time. In addition, these companies provide their financial information and operational results online. In contrast, information about penny stock companies can be extremely difficult to find, making them more likely to be the subject of an investment fraud scheme and making it less likely that quoted prices in the market will be based on full and complete information about the company.

No Minimum Listing Standards. Companies that offer shares of their stock on exchanges can be subject to stringent listing standards that require the company to have a minimum amount of net assets and shareholders. Most penny stock companies do not list their shares on exchanges and are not subject to these minimum standards.

Risk of Lower Liquidity. Liquidity refers to the ability of market participants to buy and sell securities. Generally, the more demand there is for a particular security, the greater the liquidity for that security. Greater liquidity makes it easier for investors to buy or sell securities so investors are more likely to receive a competitive price for securities purchased or sold if the security is more liquid. Penny stocks are often traded infrequently and have lower liquidity. You may therefore have difficulty selling penny stocks once you own them. Moreover, because it may be difficult to find quotations for certain penny stocks, they may be difficult, or even impossible, to accurately price.

Risk of Higher Volatility. Volatility refers to changes in price that securities undergo when they are being traded. Generally, the higher the volatility of a security, the greater its price swings. Due to their lower liquidity, penny stocks are subject to greater volatility and price swings. A customer order to purchase or sell a penny stock may not execute or may execute at a substantially different price than the prices quoted in the market at the time the order was placed. In addition, the market price of any penny stock shares you obtain can vary significantly over time.

Penny Stocks Can Be Subject to Scams. Penny stocks are frequent vehicles for scams and/or market manipulation due to their generally lower prices and less stringent listing requirements. You should be wary of advertisements, unsolicited e-mails, newsletters, blogs or other promotional reports that emphasize the potential for large profits in penny stocks generally or certain penny stocks. These promotional materials are often used to manipulate or "pump up" the price of penny stocks before selling a large volume of shares. Customers are therefore strongly encouraged to do their own due diligence with respect to any penny stock company they invest in and to not rely on any outside promotional reports or newsletters.

Further information concerning penny stocks and the risks involved in trading them is available on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov/investor/pubs/microcapstock.htm.

Disclosure Regarding Interactive Brokers Pre-Borrow Program

Introduction: Interactive Brokers ("IB") offers eligible customers the ability to borrow shares in advance of selling such shares short (a "pre-borrow" transaction). Please read the following disclosure carefully for important information about the pre-borrow program.

Basic Nature of Transaction: When you pre-borrow shares through IB, you will be engaging in a securities borrowing transaction with IB as your counterparty and you will be charged an interest rate each day for the borrowed shares. The interest rate may change as often as daily based on changes in market conditions, changes in demand for the shares in the securities lending market, and other factors.

All Borrow Rates Are Merely Indicative Until Confirmed on Daily Statement; Rates May Change Daily: IB may provide indicative interest rates for pre-borrows, but such rates are indicative only and may be higher or lower by a material amount than the actual rate that you will be charged if you borrow securities, which will be determined at or near the end of the trading day and is subject to change each day thereafter.

By using the IB Trader Workstation or other means to initiate a pre-borrow transaction, you are agreeing to borrow securities for at least one day and you are agreeing to pay whatever interest rate IB charges you in its sole discretion for the loan of the securities (i.e., your request to pre-borrow shares is similar to a "market order"). The rate for your loan will be determined by IB based on a number of factors, including but not limited to demand in the securities lending market, rates charged to IB by its counterparties and borrowing and lending activity by other IB customers. After you have requested a pre-borrow and IB has confirmed the loan to you of the shares during the trading day, IB may provide you with an indicative rate for the loan. Again, this rate is only indicative and the final interest rate is subject to change and will not be determined until at or near the end of the trading day. The interest rate for each day and transaction is not final until it is reported to you on your daily IB statement.

Return of Borrowed Shares: If you wish to return shares after you have borrowed them, you may do so beginning on the next trading day (you cannot return borrowed shares on the same day as the original pre-borrow). In order to return shares on a given day and terminate the borrowing costs, you must initiate a return of the shares by the cut-off time specified on the IB website or by 10:50 a.m. Eastern U.S. time, whichever is earlier.

Pre-Borrow Transactions And Short Sale Transactions Are Separate And Independent: When you pre-borrow shares, the transaction does not automatically involve a short sale of such shares. You must engage in a separate short sale trade to open a short position. Likewise, if you pre-borrow shares and then sell the shares short, and later you cover the short sale by purchasing shares, this will not automatically extinguish the borrow transaction. I.e., you will still be borrowing the shares and in order to return them and stop paying interest for borrowing them, you must separately initiate a return of the borrowed shares using the Trader Workstation or other means specified by IB. If, after pre-borrowing shares, you do not sell them short for settlement within 5 days of the pre-borrow, IB may, but is not required to, terminate the loan and return the shares.

If you have an existing short sale position and you subsequently pre-borrow shares of the same security, IB may, but is not required to, use the pre-borrow to support the existing short position (depending on when and if you engage in other short sales).

No Guaranteed Term for Borrows; Borrowed Shares Subject to Recall at Any Time: Pre-borrowing shares does not give you the right to keep the borrowed shares for any specific period of time. The loan can be terminated by IB at any time and the borrowed shares will be taken from your account and returned. Among other reasons, this may happen if IB's external stock loan counterparties demand the shares back from IB. If you have pre-borrowed shares and then sold the shares short and IB thereafter terminates your borrow, this will not automatically terminate your short position (IB will not necessarily buy-in the shares you sold short). IB may be able to continue to provide shares to support your short position. If you pre-borrow shares and the loan is later terminated and if IB cannot otherwise find shares to continue to support your short position, you short position will be subject to being bought-in.

Commissions and Interest Rates: In addition to the interest rate you pay for borrowing shares, you will be charged a commission (at the commission rate described on IB's website) for each pro-borrow transaction. While IB will attempt to provide competitive interest rates for your pre-borrow transactions, IB does not guarantee that the rate will be the most favorable rate available. When you pre-borrow shares, IB may lend you shares it has available or may engage in separate transactions with external stock loan counterparties to support the loan to you. In either instance IB and/or its affiliates may earn a profit and/or a spread over market interest rates on the loan of shares to you.

Borrowing charges will be applied to your account on the same day that you initiate a pre-borrow transaction. This is true even though a short sale of those same shares will not settle until three days after the trade date. Thus, pre-borrowing before a short sale will lead you to incur several extra days of interest charges for the borrowed shares compared to an ordinary short sale done without a pre-borrow.

No Voting Or Other Rights: You will not have the right to vote, or to provide any consent or to take any similar action with respect to securities you borrow even if the record date or deadline for such vote, consent or other action falls during the term of the loan.

SIPC May Not Protect Pre-Borrowed Shares Prior to a Short Sale: Prior to using pre-borrowed shares for a short sale, such shares may not be protected under the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970.

Nasdaq ISE Disclosure for Option Orders Over 500 Contracts

Interactive Brokers is required to provide to you the following disclosure regarding option orders of over 500 contracts that may be executed using the Nasdaq ISE (ISE) Block Order Solicitation Mechanism:

Risk Disclosure Regarding Short Selling of Mexican Stocks

There are risks associated with short selling Mexican stocks that may expose you to significant losses. This strategy is not suitable for all customers. Please read the following carefully:

1. Selling stock short is a risky strategy for investors.
   
   
   • There is unlimited risk when shorting stock as stocks may continue to increase in price indefinitely.
   • There is risk that the company will effect a corporate action while you are short the stock and you will be responsible for paying for any dividends or other distributions.
2. Short sales must be done in a margin account and are subject to IB's margin requirements.
3. Prior to selling short, IB must confirm that it can locate shares of the stock to borrow for delivery. Any fees incurred by IB for borrowing stock on your behalf will be passed on to you.
4. If IB cannot borrow stock (or re-borrow after a recall notice from the lender) IB may buy shares of stock on your behalf to cover short positions and you will be liable for any losses/costs.
5. Borrowing stock requires that you post collateral. The lender and IB determine which type of assets may be posted as Collateral. Collateral is returned to you when the shares are returned to the lender.
6. The lender of the shares reserves the right to recall the shares at any time. Should a recall of shares occur, IB will attempt to replace the previously borrowed shares with shares from another source. If IB is unable to borrow sufficient shares, IB reserves the right to buy shares on your behalf to cover short positions. Additionally, the lender may execute a buy-in transaction in the marketplace and notify IB of the execution price. IB, in turn, allocates the buy-in to customers based upon their settled short stock position. You will be liable for any losses/costs.
7. Based on the manner in which a buy-in may be required to be executed, significant differences between the price at which the buy-in transaction was executed and the prior day's close may result. These differences may be especially pronounced in the case of illiquid securities.
8. Based on the manner in which a buy-in and a third party is allowed to execute a buy-in, significant differences between the price at which the buy-in transaction was executed and the prior day's close may result. These differences may be especially pronounced in the case of illiquid securities.
9. Short positions are subject to liquidation to meet any margin deficiency that may arise in your account(s) and IB may not provide notice prior to such liquidation.

Debit Card Supplement to Interactive Brokers LLC Customer Agreement

This Supplement (the "Supplement") to the Interactive Brokers LLC Customer Agreement is made between Customer and Interactive Brokers LLC ("IB") and sets forth the conditions under which IB agrees to permit Customer to participate in the Interactive Brokers Debit Mastercard ("Card") program, under which a debit card will be issued to Customer by Metropolitan Commercial Bank ("MCB" or "Bank"). Customer agrees to be legally bound by the terms and conditions set forth in this Supplement. This Supplement is solely between IB and Customer, and nothing in this Supplement shall amend, supplement, vary, or otherwise change or replace the terms and conditions governing the relationship between MCB and Customer, as set forth in the Interactive Brokers Debit Mastercard Cardholder Agreement ("Cardholder Agreement") between MCB and Customer.

Customer understands and agrees that Customer continues to remain bound by the terms and conditions of the Interactive Brokers LLC Customer Agreement (as amended from time to time, the "Customer Agreement") which governs Customer's securities brokerage account at IB ("Brokerage Account"), of which this Supplement forms a part (such Customer Agreement, together with this Supplement and any other supplements, annexes, schedules or exhibits, the "Agreement"), and that all terms and conditions in the Customer Agreement, including, without limitation, the "Mandatory Arbitration" provision thereof, shall also govern the relationship between IB and Customer with regard to any services in connection with the Card and any other service, transaction or relationship contemplated by this Supplement. Unless otherwise defined, capitalized terms used but not defined in this Supplement shall have the meanings assigned in the Customer Agreement.

1. Definitions: As used in this Supplement:
   
   
   1. "You" shall mean the Customer to whom the Card is issued.
      
      
   2. "We" or "us" shall mean IB.
      
      
2. General Features of Services: The Card allows you to make charges in, and withdraw cash from, your Card Account. "Card Account" means your beneficial interest in the pooled deposit account at MCB held by IBKR on behalf of its customers in connection with their respective Cards. You instruct us to link your Brokerage Account to your Card Account and to automatically fund your Card Account as needed to settle transactions made with your Card. As a result, and for your convenience, any credits, charges or withdrawals posted to your Card Account will be reflected as identical credits, charges or withdrawals to your Brokerage Account. Your Brokerage Account will automatically fund the Card Account from available cash balances in your Brokerage Account (the "Available Cash Balance"). In addition, if your Brokerage Account is a margin account, your Brokerage Account will automatically fund your Card Account (to the extent that you do not have an Available Cash Balance) by incurring a new margin debit in your Brokerage Account, up to your cash withdrawal limit, pursuant to the terms of your Customer Agreement (the "Margin Spending Limit" and as added to your Available Cash Balance, your "Spending Power").
   
   
3. Available to Withdraw: Your Spending Power may fluctuate from day to day because it is dependent upon changes in the Available Cash Balance (and, in the case of margin accounts, available Margin Spending Limit) in your Brokerage Account. Shortly after IB is notified of a transaction, your Spending Power is reduced. You promise not to make a transaction (such as making a purchase with your Card or withdrawing cash at an ATM) that exceeds your Spending Power. If you attempt to make a transaction that will exceed your Spending Power, the transaction will normally be declined. If, for any reason, such transaction is not declined, you agree to be responsible for such transaction to the full extent permitted under the Cardholder Agreement between you and the Bank.
   
   
4. Payment for Transactions: On a daily basis, IB will receive notice of the transactions on your Card Account. Funds will automatically be withdrawn from your Brokerage Account and deposited into the Bank Deposit Sweep Program (the "Program") at MCB (refer to the section below titled "Bank Deposit Sweep Program" for more information) to satisfy the debits made in your Card Account (whether with your Card or otherwise) that are settling that day. IB will make payments to the Program on your behalf on each Business Day (Monday through Friday, excluding federal and legal banking holidays in the State of New York) that IB receives notice of settling transactions. You authorize IB to charge your Brokerage Account in order to fund your Card Account in order to pay for transactions that you make. Each transaction shall be considered to be your direction to us to charge your Brokerage Account in order to fund your Card Account. When you use your Card, the charge or reduction to your Spending Power generally occurs immediately. You understand that Authorizations, transactions in which you authorize others to place a hold on your Spending Power to ensure future payment, will reduce your Spending Power by the amount of the Authorization even if the Authorization does not result in a transaction. Note that an Authorization will reduce your Spending Power until the transaction is completed in whole or in part, or if it is not completed, after the expiration of a time period specified by us.
   
   
5. Payment of Items: All Card transactions will be accumulated daily, and charged to your Brokerage Account in any order we may choose. We will debit your Brokerage Account on the day a transaction settles in the transaction amount, including any fees or other charges associated with the transaction. If you do not have a sufficient Available Cash Balance at the time a transaction settles, we will settle the transaction by increasing your current margin debit (if any). You understand that margin transactions carry substantially increased risk, including the risk that we will be obligated to liquidate your Brokerage Account in part or whole if your Brokerage Account falls below its minimum maintenance margin level, and that you will be charged interest on any margin debit you incur. You understand that IB generally will not issue margin calls in connection with margin deficiencies and that you may not be able to transfer funds into your Brokerage Account quickly enough to prevent liquidation in the event that your Brokerage Account falls below maintenance margin requirements on either an intraday or overnight basis. Please read the section of your Customer Agreement titled "Margin" for more details about the risks of margin trading and IB's policies in connection with margin deficits, margin calls, and liquidation.
   
   
6. Loss, Theft or Unauthorized Transaction: You should tell us AT ONCE (by calling 1-866-532-4654) if you believe your Card has been lost or stolen or if you believe an unauthorized person may know the personal identification number ("PIN") associated with your Card. Similarly, tell us, as agent for MCB, if you believe any unauthorized transactions have been made in your Card Account. Your Cardholder Agreement with MCB sets your rights and obligations with respect to your use of your Card, including your liability for unauthorized transactions.
   
   
7. Authorized Users: You may request an additional Card ("Supplementary Card") to allow another person to make withdrawals from and incur charges to your Card Account. If you permit another person to have access to your Card or Card Number (the 16-digit number on your Card), or to receive a Supplementary Card, you are wholly responsible for such person's use of any such Card according to the terms and conditions set forth in your Cardholder Agreement with MCB.
   
   
8. Bank Deposit Sweep Program: As a condition of receiving a Card, you agree to participate in our bank deposit sweep Program with MCB. Agreeing to this Supplement and receiving a Card automatically enrolls your Brokerage Account in the Program. For purposes of administering the Program, you appoint us as your authorized agent and custodian and acknowledge and agree that we may engage third parties (including affiliates) to act on our behalf or on your behalf with respect to the Program. Currently, no bank will accept any instructions concerning your cash on deposit with MCB, the destination bank, unless such instructions are transmitted by us.

   Cash is deposited from your Brokerage Account into the Program solely for the purpose of settling debits in your Card Account. Cash deposited in the Program will generally only remain in the Program intraday. The Program is not intended to be an interest-bearing service, but to solely function as a means for settling debit entries in your Card Account. Cash transferred from your Brokerage Account to your Card Account, while it is deposited with MCB is a bank deposit and such deposit is solely the obligation of MCB and not us. We act only as agent and custodian for your deposit and you are the depositor. The cash deposited in your Card Account as a result of Card transaction authorizations will be used by MCB to settle such transactions with the various Card networks in which your Card participates as well as to pay any applicable fees as specified by your Cardholder Agreement. We inform you as of the end of each calendar month as part of your Brokerage Account statement the amount of cash MCB holds on deposit on your behalf in your Card Account as a result of your participation in the Program.

   MCB is the depository institution duly chartered under New York state law, the deposits of which are insured by the FDIC. We are a broker-dealer registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA"). We are not a bank. All cash in your Card Account under the Program is deposited in an FDIC-insured account at MCB. Any cash in your Card Account on deposit with MCB is not covered by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) protection applicable to your Brokerage Account.

   With prior notice to you and, if then required by applicable law or regulation, with your consent, we can change the features or products that are included in the Program to include any legally permissible deposit account or instrument or we can terminate any or all of the products in the Program and hold some or all of your cash only as a positive cash balance in your Brokerage Account. We may in our sole discretion, for any reason we deem appropriate and without prior notice, restrict participation of your Brokerage Account in the Program or decline to permit your Brokerage Account from participating in the Program at any time on a going forward basis. You understand that if we do so, this will generally result in a termination of your Card privileges and of any other services contemplated by this Supplement.

9. Account Statements: IB will send you a Brokerage Account statement every month in which a transaction was made. In any case, you will get a Brokerage Account statement at least quarterly. Daily Activity Statements will generally be available for your Brokerage Account on the next business day, and will reflect pending as well as settled debit card transactions. MCB will not send you a separate periodic statement. You should review your statement and receipts carefully, and promptly notify us of any discrepancy between your records and what is reflected on your statement.
   
   
10. Authorization to Share Information With Third Parties: We will not reveal any information to third parties about your Brokerage Account or any transaction information we receive from MCB, as provided in your Cardholder Agreement with MCB, EXCEPT: (1) you hereby authorize us to share information concerning your transactions with our affiliates and agents for the purpose of servicing your Card; (2) where it is necessary for completing your transactions or providing you other services; (3) to other persons and entities in order to resolve disputes arising from transactions; or (4) in any other circumstances contemplated by our Privacy Policy, as furnished to you separately and updated or amended from time to time by us.
    
    
11. Nature of Obligations: The obligations of IB as they relate to your Card are set forth in this Supplement. Your Cardholder Agreement with MCB sets forth MCB's obligations in connection with your Card as well as your obligations in connection with your Card. IB is not liable for the obligations of MCB, nor is MCB liable for the obligations of IB.
    
    
12. Other Terms: Use of your Card is subject to all terms of your Cardholder Agreement with MCB. We do not waive our rights by delaying or failing to exercise them at any time. If any provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable under any applicable rule, law, or regulation of any regulatory agency, whether local, state, federal, securities SRO or otherwise, the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement shall not be affected.
    


13. Notices: Notices and other communications relating to your Brokerage Account in connection with your use of your Card (including, without limitation, communications relating to your Spending Power) will be provided electronically in accordance with your Customer Agreement.
    
    
14. Termination of Card Services: IB or you may terminate the services contemplated under this Supplement, including the use of Cards, at any time. You shall remain responsible for authorized charges that arise before or after termination. In the event of termination for whatever reason, you shall promptly destroy all Cards.
    
    
15. Disputes Involving Your Account: This Supplement shall be treated for all purposes as forming a part of the Customer Agreement. Any dispute between you and IB, arising from any of the services contemplated by this Supplement, shall be governed by the pre-dispute mandatory arbitration provision of the Customer Agreement. Your Cardholder Agreement with MCB may contain different dispute resolution provisions, which may apply to disputes between you and MCB and other parties covered by that agreement but do not apply to disputes between you and IB.
    

THE CUSTOMER AGREEMENT, WHICH THIS SUPPLEMENT FORMS A PART OF, CONTAINS A PRE-DISPUTE ARBITRATION CLAUSE IN PARAGRAPH 34. BY SIGNING THIS SUPPLEMENT, I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A PRE-DISPUTE ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND THAT I HAVE RECEIVED, READ AND UNDERSTOOD THE TERMS THEREOF.

Direct Debit Supplement to Interactive Brokers LLC Customer Agreement

This Supplement (the "Supplement") to the Interactive Brokers LLC Customer Agreement is made between Customer ("you") and Interactive Brokers LLC ("IBKR", "we", or "us") and sets forth the conditions under which IBKR agrees to permit you to direct debit funds from your IBKR brokerage account ("Brokerage Account") via an external account at a U.S. bank or other U.S.-resident financial institution ("External Account") using the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network (the "Service"). You agree to be legally bound by the terms and conditions set forth in this Supplement.  

You understand and agree that you continue to remain bound by the terms and conditions of the IBKR Customer Agreement (as amended from time to time, the "Customer Agreement") which governs your Brokerage Account, of which this Supplement forms a part (such Customer Agreement, together with this Supplement and any other supplements, annexes, schedules or exhibits, the "Agreement"), and that all terms and conditions in the Customer Agreement, including, without limitation, the "Mandatory Arbitration" provision thereof, shall also govern the relationship between IBKR and you with regard to the Service and any other service, transaction or relationship contemplated by this Supplement. Unless otherwise defined, capitalized terms used but not defined in this Supplement shall have the meanings assigned in the Customer Agreement.

1. General Features of the Service: Through the Service, you may instruct another U.S. financial institution or payment system (the "External Correspondent") to direct debit your Brokerage Account in a specified amount for the benefit of an External Account, and that debit will be submitted to IBKR through its agent bank by the External Correspondent for payment via the ACH network (a "Direct Debit"). Direct Debits may be withdrawn up to the available cash balance in your Brokerage Account (the "Available Cash Balance"), subject to any limits under Section 7 of this Supplement. In addition, if your Brokerage Account is a margin account, to the extent that you do not have sufficient Available Cash Balance, your Brokerage Account will automatically make available funds, by incurring a new margin debit in your Brokerage Account, up to your cash withdrawal limit (subject to any limits under Section 7 of this Supplement), pursuant to the terms of your Customer Agreement (the "Margin Spending Limit" and as added to your Available Cash Balance, your "Spending Power").
   
   
2. ACH Authorization: You hereby authorize IBKR to (i) honor Direct Debit instructions received via the ACH network by our agent bank with respect to your Brokerage Account (a remotely-initiated transfer of funds from your Brokerage Account to an External Account) and (ii) initiate returns of erroneous, unauthorized, or duplicate Direct Debit entries or Direct Debit entries that exceed your Spending Power. This authorization will remain in full force and effect until IBKR has received written notification from you of its termination. IBKR must receive this notification of termination in a time and manner so as to give IBKR and the other financial institutions a reasonable opportunity to act on your instructions.
   
   We will send you a notification in writing (a "Debit Notice") anytime we receive a Direct Debit request for your Brokerage Account. Currently, we will send Debit Notices by SMS text message. In the future we may offer other ways to receive Debit Notices. We may add such other methods to the terms of this Agreement at any time by notifying you in writing or by providing notice on our website at www.ibkr.com of such change.
   
   You should immediately review any Debit Notice you receive from us. If you do not recognize the transaction in any such Debit Notice, you should notify us immediately (but in any event no later than 2pm Eastern Time on the Business Day (Monday through Friday, excluding federal and legal banking holidays) following the day of our Debit Notice) by cancelling the transaction via the functionality in your IBKR mobile app on your smartphone ("IBKR Mobile"). We may provide alternative means to cancel a Direct Debit in the future. We will notify you in writing or provide notice on our website of any such alternative mechanism (the term IBKR Mobile, as used below, shall encompass any such alternative mechanism as well), and such notice shall serve to amend the terms of this Agreement to encompass such alternative method.
   
   If we receive a Direct Debit request for your Brokerage Account in excess of a certain threshold dollar value (the "Threshold Amount"), we will automatically reject such request unless you explicitly authorize and approve such specific Direct Debit via IBKR Mobile by no later than 2pm Eastern Time on the Business Day following the day of our Debit Notice, and we will note that fact in our Debit Notice to you for such Direct Debit.
   
   The Threshold Amount is currently $1,000, but we may change that at any time without notice to you. We will endeavor to notify you in writing promptly of any such change to the Threshold Amount, but our failure to so notify you will not negate any such change or result in any liability to you.
   
   We may, from time to time, add additional security measures, in our sole discretion, with or without notice to you. Such security measures may, in some instances, result in a Direct Debit being delayed or rejected. We will not be liable to you for any loss or damages you incur as a result of our delay or rejection of your Direct Debit as the result of such security measures.
   
   
   
3. Use and Purpose: For security reasons, we may limit the amount or number of transactions you can make using the Service. You may not use the Service for any illegal transaction. If we suspect that you have used the Service to conduct an illegal transaction, we reserve the right to cancel your enrollment in the Service. We reserve the right to decline any Direct Debit request at any time, even if there is sufficient Spending Power available in the Brokerage Account to settle the transaction, if, in our sole discretion, we believe that a transaction is for an improper purpose, is fraudulent, or is otherwise not within the terms of the Service as set forth by IBKR from time to time. IBKR will not be liable for any incidental or consequential damages incurred by you or any other person as a result of IBKR declining any Direct Debit request under such circumstances.
   
   
4. Available to Withdraw: Your Spending Power may fluctuate from day to day because it is dependent upon changes in the Available Cash Balance (and, in the case of margin accounts, available Margin Spending Limit) in your Brokerage Account. Promptly after IBKR is notified of a Direct Debit request, your Spending Power is reduced. You promise not to make a transaction that exceeds your Spending Power. If you attempt to make a transaction that will exceed your Spending Power, the transaction will normally be declined. If, for any reason, such transaction is not declined, you agree to be responsible for such transaction to the full extent permitted under the applicable Agreement(s).
   
   
5. Payment for Direct Debit Transactions: On a daily basis, IBKR will receive notice of the direct debit transactions you have initiated using the Service. Funds will automatically be withdrawn from your Brokerage Account to satisfy the debits that are settling that day. You authorize IBKR to charge your Brokerage Account in order to pay for transactions that you initiate through an External Account. Each transaction shall be considered to be your direction to us to charge your Brokerage Account in order to settle the Direct Debit transaction you have initiated. When you make a payment using the Service, the charge or reduction to your Spending Power generally occurs immediately upon receipt by IBKR of the Direct Debit request.
   
   
6. Payment of Items: All transactions made using the Service will be accumulated daily, and charged to your Brokerage Account in any order we may choose. We will debit your Brokerage Account in the transaction amount on the day a transaction settles, including any fees or other charges associated with the transaction. If you do not have a sufficient Available Cash Balance at the time a transaction settles, if you have a margin account, we will settle the transaction by increasing your current margin debit (if any), up to your Margin Spending Limit. If you do not have sufficient Spending Power to settle a Direct Debit request, we will decline the request. If we inadvertently approve and settle a Direct Debit for which you lack sufficient Spending Power, you hereby authorize us to attempt to reverse the transaction with the External Correspondent. If we are unable to do so, you understand that you will be liable for the full amount of the Direct Debit, even if it exceeded your Spending Power at the time of settlement.
   
   You understand that margin transactions carry substantially increased risk, including the risk that we will be obligated to liquidate your Brokerage Account in part or whole if your Brokerage Account falls below its minimum maintenance margin level, and that you will be charged interest on any margin debit you incur. You understand that IBKR generally will not issue margin calls in connection with margin deficiencies and that you may not be able to transfer funds into your Brokerage Account quickly enough to prevent liquidation in the event that your Brokerage Account falls below maintenance margin requirements on either an intraday or overnight basis. Please read the section of your Customer Agreement titled "Margin" for more details about the risks of margin trading and IBKR's policies in connection with margin deficits, margin calls, and liquidation.
   
   
7. Limitations on Frequency and Dollar Amounts of Transactions: For security reasons, we may further limit the number or dollar amount of Direct Debit transactions you can make per day, or the maximum amount of any single Direct Debit transaction, using this Service. Current limits can be found at https://www.ibkr.com.
   
   
8. Recurring Transactions: If you intend to use this Service for recurring transactions, you should monitor your balance and ensure you have funds available in your Brokerage Account to cover the transactions. "Recurring transactions" are transactions that are authorized in advance by you to be charged to your Brokerage Account at substantially regular intervals. We are not responsible if a recurring transaction is declined because you have not maintained a sufficient balance in your Brokerage Account to cover the transaction. If you have authorized an External Correspondent or merchant to make a recurring transaction and you do not expect to have sufficient Spending Power in your Brokerage Account to cover the transaction, you also should contact the applicable External Correspondent or merchant in order to stop the recurring transaction.
   
   
9. Authorization to Share Information With Third Parties: We will not reveal any information to third parties about your Brokerage Account or any transaction information in connection with your participation in this Service, EXCEPT you hereby authorize us to share information concerning your transactions: (1) with our affiliates and agents for the purpose of servicing your participation in the Service; (2) where it is necessary for completing your transactions or providing you other services; (3) to other persons and entities in order to resolve disputes arising from transactions; or (4) in any other circumstances contemplated by our Privacy Policy, as furnished to you separately and updated or amended from time to time by us.
   
   
10. Your Liability: You should tell us AT ONCE (by calling 1-866-532-4654) and submit a Written Statement of Unauthorized Debit to Interactive Brokers LLC (by mailing Interactive Brokers Direct Debit, 209 S. LaSalle Street, 10th Floor, Chicago, IL 60604 or electronically via Account Management) if you believe any unauthorized Direct Debit transactions have been made in your Brokerage Account.
    
    If you tell us within 2 Business Days after you learn of an unauthorized Direct Debit transaction and/or the loss or theft of your IBKR Mobile credentials, you can lose no more than $50 if someone initiated a Direct Debit and/or used your IBKR Mobile credentials to approve a Direct Debit without your permission. If you do NOT tell us within 2 Business Days after you learn of an unauthorized transaction and/or of the loss or theft of your IBKR Mobile credentials, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from engaging in an unauthorized Direct Debit if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.
    
    If your statement shows Direct Debits that you did not authorize, tell us at once. If you do not tell us within 60 calendar days after the statement showing the first unauthorized transaction was made available to you, you may not get back any money you lost after the 60 days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us in time. If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods.
    
    
11. Our Liability: If we do not complete a transfer to or from your Brokerage Account on time or in the correct amount according to our agreement with you, we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance: (1) if, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough Spending Power to make the transfer; (2) if the system was not working properly and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transfer; (3) if circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent the transfer, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken; (4) there may be other exceptions stated in our Agreement with you.
    
    
12. Unauthorized Transaction: In case of errors or questions about your Direct Debits, telephone us at 1-866-532-4654, or write us at Interactive Brokers LLC, ATTN: Interactive Brokers Direct Debit, 209 S. LaSalle Street, 10th Floor, Chicago, IL 60604, or log into your Brokerage Account as soon as you can. We must hear from you no later than 60 calendar days after the FIRST statement showing the error becomes available. When you contact us: (1) Tell us your name and Brokerage Account number; (2) Describe the error or the transfer you are unsure about, and explain as clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or why you need more information; (3) Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error; (4) Fill out and sign the Written Statement of Unauthorized Debit that will be provided to you and submit it to Customer Service electronically. If you report an unauthorized transaction to us orally, we will still require you to submit a Written Statement of Unauthorized Debit (as set forth above).
    
    We will tell you the results within three Business Days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.
    
    
13. No Warranty: In the event that you pay a third-party, directly or indirectly, for any goods or services through the use of the Service, we are not responsible for the delivery, quality, safety, legality or any other aspect of such goods or services. Any disputes regarding any such goods or services must be addressed to the merchants from whom any such goods and services were purchased.
    
    
14. Notices: Notices and other communications relating to your Brokerage Account in connection with your use of the Service (including, without limitation, communications relating to your Spending Power) will be provided electronically in accordance with your Customer Agreement.
    
    
15. Termination of the Service: IBKR or you may terminate the Service contemplated under this Supplement at any time. You shall remain responsible for authorized charges that arise before or after termination of the Service. In the event of termination for whatever reason, you shall promptly destroy all property relating to the Service.
    
    
16. Disputes Involving Your Brokerage Account: This Supplement shall be treated for all purposes as forming a part of the Customer Agreement. Any dispute between you and IBKR, arising from any of the services contemplated by this Supplement, shall be governed by the pre-dispute mandatory arbitration provision of the Customer Agreement.

THE CUSTOMER AGREEMENT, WHICH THIS SUPPLEMENT FORMS A PART OF, CONTAINS A PRE-DISPUTE ARBITRATION CLAUSE IN PARAGRAPH 34. BY SIGNING THIS SUPPLEMENT, I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A PRE-DISPUTE ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND THAT I HAVE RECEIVED, READ AND UNDERSTOOD THE TERMS THEREOF.

Additional Terms & Conditions for Use of Android Pay to Supplement Your Interactive Brokers Debit Mastercard Cardholder Agreement

These terms and conditions ("Terms and Conditions") are a legal agreement between you and Metropolitan Commercial Bank ("MCB," "the Bank," "our," "we" or "us") and govern your use of your Interactive Brokers Debit Mastercard through Android Pay on any payment-supported device developed or authorized by Google, Inc. ("Google") from time to time to support Android Pay ("Eligible Devices"). The term "Android Pay" means the Android Pay mobile payment functionality offered by Google and the Card provisioning functionality performed, and transaction history displayed, by the digital wallet application, on the Web, and on any other Eligible Device. In this Agreement, "Card" means the Interactive Brokers Debit Mastercard issued to you by MCB. The "Program Manager" for the Interactive Brokers Debit Mastercard is Interactive Brokers LLC ("IB"). "Card Account" means your beneficial interest in the pooled deposit account at MCB held by IB on behalf of its customers in connection with their respective Cards. Under the terms of your brokerage account with IB ("Brokerage Account") and the Interactive Brokers Debit Mastercard Cardholder Agreement ("Cardholder Agreement") with MCB, your Brokerage Account is linked to your Card Account and will automatically fund your Card Account as needed to settle transactions made with your Card; see Cardholder Agreement for full details. "You" and "your" means the person who has received the Card and who is authorized to use the Card as provided for in this Agreement. The Program Manager will determine, in its sole discretion on the Bank’s behalf, which Cards will be eligible for use through Android Pay.

Please review these Terms and Conditions before you decide whether to accept them and continue with the addition of your Card to Android Pay. You consent to the receiving of these Terms and Conditions electronically. By using a Card in Android Pay you agree to only use your Card through Android Pay in accordance with these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions, then you may not add your Card to or use your Card in connection with Android Pay. These Terms and Conditions supersede any prior terms and conditions you may have agreed to with respect to access to and the use of Cards through Android Pay. You agree that these Terms and Conditions govern your access to and use of Cards through Android Pay on all Eligible Devices. Your use of Android Pay to purchase goods and services with your Card is still governed by the Cardholder Agreement between you and us, in connection with your Card, and all such terms and conditions, including the pre-dispute arbitration clause, contained in the Cardholder Agreement. The Cardholder Agreement is incorporated by reference as part of these Terms and Conditions. The arbitration provision applies to any disputes between you and us arising from your access to or use of Cards in connection with Android Pay. If any inconsistency between the two documents, this Supplement will control for the use of Android Pay.

You also acknowledge that your use of Android Pay is subject to the terms and conditions set forth by Google with respect to the use of Android Pay.

ELIGIBILITY / ENROLLMENT

Android Pay is available to you for the purposes of purchasing goods and services with an Eligible Device at merchants that accept Android Pay as a form of payment through near field communication (NFC) enabled payment terminals and for in–app purchases and authorized merchant websites when using a compatible browser. Android Pay allows you to use your Eligible Device to access and use your Card to make such purchases in place of presenting or using your physical Card and to make purchases in-app or on websites at merchants participating in Android Pay. When you select a Card to use with Android Pay, certain account information related to the Card will be transmitted to and stored within your Eligible Device or on Google’s cloud platform to facilitate your participation in Android Pay. Once the account information for a Card has been stored on your Eligible Device, it is represented by a virtual representation of your Card within Android Pay. By adding this Card to Android Pay or selecting this Card as the default card in Android Pay, unlocking and/or placing your Eligible Device near a merchant's contactless-enabled point-of-sale terminal or reader or using this Card for an in-app or website purchase, you are authorizing the payment for the merchant's products or services with that Card with Android Pay. To complete transactions above a certain dollar amount, merchants may require presentation of a physical companion card or a government-issued form of identification for inspection at the point-of-sale to authenticate your identity. You may need to present your Eligible Device at a merchant when you return an item purchased using Android Pay on such Eligible Device. You authorize your wireless operator (AT&T, Sprint, T–Mobile, US Cellular, Verizon or any other branded wireless operator) to disclose your mobile number, name, address, email, network status, customer type, customer role, billing type, account activation date, and device make and model, where provided in accordance with your mobile operator's privacy policy, to allow verification of your identity and to compare information you have provided in connection with your Card Account with your mobile operator account profile information. This disclosed data may be used and stored for fraud prevention purposes and/or to complete transactions.

YOUR USE OF YOUR CARD THROUGH ANDROID PAY

Please review the Cardholder Agreement, as applicable, for important information on your rights and responsibilities when making purchases. If your Eligible Device is lost or stolen, your fingerprint identity or passcode is compromised or Card has been used through Android Pay without your permission, you must notify the Program Manager, as agent for MCB, immediately using the number provided on the back of your Card or by logging into your Brokerage Account at www.IBKR.com. If you fail to notify us without delay, you may be liable for part or all of the losses in connection with any unauthorized use of your Card in connection with Android Pay. Refer to your Cardholder Agreement for information regarding your liability for unauthorized transfers.

You agree and acknowledge that the transaction history displayed in Android Pay, in connection with use of your Card in Android Pay, solely represents our authorization of your Android Pay transaction and does not reflect any post–authorization activity including, but not limited to, clearing, settlement, foreign currency exchange, reversals, returns or chargebacks. Accordingly, the purchase amount, currency and other details for your Android Pay transaction history in connection with use of your Card in Android Pay may not match the transaction amount that ultimately clears, settles and posts to your Card Account. We do not impose a fee for using your Card through Android Pay. Your telecommunications carrier or provider or Google may impose web–enablement, data usage or text messaging fees or other charges for your use of Android Pay.

AUTHORIZATION TO COLLECT AND SHARE DATA

Inc. and its affiliate Interlink) as well as such network's sub–contractors, agents, and affiliates, will have access to certain details of your transactions made with merchants via use of your Cards through Android Pay. We will use, share and protect your personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy applicable to your Card account. A copy of our Privacy Policy is available for review in your Cardholder Agreement.

Apple Pay is available to you for the purposes of purchasing goods and services with an Eligible Device at merchants that accept Apple Pay as a form of payment through near field communication (NFC) enabled payment terminals, for in–app purchases and authorized merchant websites when using a compatible Safari browser on a compatible MacBook Pro. Apple Pay allows you to use your Eligible Device to access and use your Cards to make such purchases in place of presenting or using your physical Card. To add your Card to Apple Pay, you must register your Card with Apple Pay by linking ("provisioning") your Card to an Eligible Device. You may be required to take additional steps to authenticate yourself before your Card is added to Apple Pay, which may include providing additional identifying information. When provisioning your Card through Apple Pay to an Eligible Device that contains a secure element, a unique numerical identifier different from your Card number ("Token") will be added to such secure element, for the purpose of making purchases through Apple Pay. If your physical plastic Card is lost or stolen, but your Eligible Device is not lost or stolen, upon provisioning your new physical plastic Card to Apple Pay, Apple Pay will automatically assign your new physical plastic Card to your existing Token. Due to the manner in which Apple Pay operates, you may need to present your Eligible Device at a merchant when you return an item purchased using Apple Pay on such Eligible Device. You authorize your wireless operator (AT&T, Sprint, T–Mobile, US Cellular, Verizon, or any other branded wireless operator) to disclose your mobile number, name, address, email, network status, customer type, customer role, billing type, account activation date, and device make and model, where provided in accordance with your mobile operator's privacy policy, to allow verification of your identity and to compare information you have provided in connection with your Card Account with your mobile operator account profile information.

ELIGIBILITY / ENROLLMENT

Samsung Pay is available to you for the purposes of purchasing goods and services with an Eligible Device at merchants that accept Samsung Pay as a form of payment through near field communication (NFC) enabled payment terminals and for in–app purchases and authorized merchant websites when using a compatible browser. Samsung Pay allows you to use your Eligible Device to access and use your Card to make such purchases in place of presenting or using your physical Card and to make purchases in-app or on websites at merchants participating in Samsung Pay. When you select a Card to use with Samsung Pay, certain account information related to the Card will be transmitted to and stored within your Eligible Device or on Samsung’s cloud platform to facilitate your participation in Samsung Pay. Once the account information for a Card has been stored on your Eligible Device, it is represented by a virtual representation of your Card within Samsung Pay. By adding this Card to Samsung Pay or selecting this Card as the default card in Samsung Pay, unlocking and/or placing your Eligible Device near a merchant's contactless-enabled point-of-sale terminal or reader or using this Card for an in-app or website purchase, you are authorizing the payment for the merchant's products or services with that Card with Samsung Pay. To complete transactions above a certain dollar amount, merchants may require presentation of a physical companion card or a government-issued form of identification for inspection at the point-of-sale to authenticate your identity. You may need to present your Eligible Device at a merchant when you return an item purchased using Samsung Pay on such Eligible Device. You authorize your wireless operator (AT&T, Sprint, T–Mobile, US Cellular, Verizon, or any other branded wireless operator) to disclose your mobile number, name, address, email, network status, customer type, customer role, billing type, account activation date, and device make and model, where provided in accordance with your mobile operator's privacy policy, to allow verification of your identity and to compare information you have provided in connection with your Card Account with your mobile operator account profile information. This disclosed data may be used and stored for fraud prevention purposes and/or to complete transactions.

RISK DISCLOSURE REGARDING COMPLEX OR LEVERAGED EXCHANGE-TRADED PRODUCTS

Interactive Brokers ("IBKR") is furnishing this disclosure to clients to provide additional information regarding the characteristics and risks associated with Complex or Leveraged exchange-traded products ("ETPs"). Complex or Leveraged Exchange-Traded Products ("ETPs") are funds or notes that trade on an exchange but have very different characteristics from shares of stock or ordinary exchange-traded funds (ETFs) such as an S&P 500 Index ETF. Complex or Leveraged ETPs may include, but are not limited to: (1) leveraged ETFs and ETPs; (2) inverse ETFs and ETPs; (3) volatility-linked ETFs and ETPs; (4) Exchange-Traded Notes ("ETNs"); (5) cryptocurrency ETFs and ETPs; and (6) any other ETP that uses derivatives, that contains imbedded leverage, or that is based on an exotic or volatile underlying commodity or index or financial product.

In addition to providing this disclosure, IBKR strongly encourages clients to carefully review the prospectus, Key Information Document or other available disclosures relating to the specific ETF, ETN or other ETP before investing, to understand its unique features, risks, fees, tax treatment and other characteristics.

LEVERAGED FUNDS

As the name implies, leveraged mutual funds and ETFs seek to provide leveraged returns at multiples of the underlying benchmark or index they track. Leveraged funds generally seek to provide a multiple (i.e., 200%, 300%) of the daily return of an index or other benchmark for a single day excluding fees and other expenses. In addition to using leverage, these funds often use derivative products such as swaps, options, and futures contracts to accomplish their objectives. The use of leverage as well as derivative instruments can cause leveraged funds to be more volatile and subject to extreme price movements, potentially causing rapid losses.

INVERSE FUNDS

Inverse mutual funds and ETFs, which are sometimes referred to as "short" funds, generally seek to provide the opposite of the single day performance of the index or benchmark they track. Inverse funds are often marketed as a way to profit from, or hedge exposure to, downward moving markets. Some inverse funds also use leverage, such that they seek to achieve a return that is a multiple of the opposite performance of the underlying index or benchmark (i.e., -200%, -300%). In addition to leverage, these funds may also use derivative instruments to accomplish their objectives. As such, inverse funds are volatile and entail the potential for significant losses.

VOLATILITY-LINKED PRODUCTS

Volatility-linked ETPs are generally designed to track a volatility measure, typically the Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index (VIX) futures. The VIX is a measure of the expected volatility of the S&P 500 index as measured by the implied volatility of options on that index. Volatility ETPs gain exposure to market volatility through futures and/or options contracts on the VIX. Volatility-linked ETPs that seek to maintain a continuous, targeted maturity exposure to VIX futures will either track or hold VIX futures contracts on a rolling basis. They will sell shorter-term contracts or contracts about to expire and replace them with contracts that have more distant or deferred maturity dates in order to maintain the desired exposure. The performance of volatility-linked ETPs may be significantly different than the performance of the VIX and the actual realized volatility of the S&P 500 Index. VIX futures contracts are among the most volatile segments of all futures markets. Volatility-linked ETPs may be subject to extreme volatility and much greater risk of loss than other traditional ETFs.

EXCHANGE-TRADED NOTES

ETNs are a type of debt security that trade on exchanges and promise a return linked to a market index or other benchmark. ETNs are unsecured debt obligations of the issuer-typically a bank or another financial institution. Unlike traditional bonds, ETNs typically do not pay any interest payments to investors. Instead, the issuer promises to pay the holder of the ETN an amount determined by the performance of the underlying index or benchmark on the ETN's maturity date (typically 10, 30 or in some cases even 40 years from issuance), minus any specified fees. In addition, unlike traditional bonds, ETNs trade on exchanges throughout the day at prices determined by the market, similar to stocks or ETFs. But unlike ETFs, ETNs do not buy or hold assets to replicate or approximate the performance of the underlying index.

Some ETNs provide exposure to familiar, broad-based indexes, while others do so to less familiar asset classes or newer, more complex, or even proprietary indexes. For example, there are ETNs linked to indexes that track emerging markets, commodities such as gold and oil, foreign currencies and market volatility. Some of the indexes and investment strategies used by ETNs can be quite sophisticated and may not have much performance history. The return on an ETN generally depends on price changes if the ETN is sold prior to maturity (as with stocks or ETFs)-or on the payment, if any, if the ETN is held to maturity or redeemed (as with some other structured products).

Some ETNs offer leveraged exposure to the index or benchmark they track. This means that they promise to pay a multiple of the performance of the underlying index or benchmark. For example, an ETN that offers two times-or "2x"-leverage promises to pay twice the performance of the index it tracks.

Inverse ETNs offer to pay the opposite of the performance of the index or benchmark they track, and leveraged inverse ETNs seek to pay a multiple of the opposite of the performance of the index or benchmark they track. Some leveraged, inverse or leveraged inverse ETNs are designed to achieve their stated performance objectives on a daily basis and "reset" their leverage or inverse exposure on a daily basis. Given the daily resetting of its leverage factor, an ETN that is set up to deliver twice the performance of a benchmark on a daily basis will not necessarily deliver twice the performance of that benchmark over longer periods such as weeks, months or years. Due to the effect of compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the stated multiple of the performance (or inverse of the performance) of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time.

Generally, leveraged and inverse ETNs are designed to be short-term trading tools and are not intended for buy-and-hold investing. Other leveraged, inverse or leveraged inverse ETNs can have monthly resets or even no resets, so it is important to distinguish one type from another and understand how their performance may differ.

ETNs list on an exchange and can be bought and sold at market prices, similar to other exchange-traded investments. Market prices of ETNs may fluctuate due to movements in the indexes they track, as well as other factors, including ETN issuances and redemption activity. Issuers of ETNs issue and redeem notes as a means to keep the ETN's price in line with a calculated value, called the indicative value or closing indicative value for ETNs. This value is calculated and published at the end of each day by the ETN issuer. When an ETN is trading at a premium above the indicative value, issuing more notes to the market can bring the price down. Similarly, if an ETN is trading at a discount, redemption of notes by the issuer reduces the number of notes available in the market, which tends to raise the price.

ETN issuers have primary control over the issuance and redemption processes in the ETN market. The decision to issue additional notes is at the issuer's sole discretion. Investors may initiate the redemption process prior to an ETN's maturity date, following precise steps laid out by the issuer in the prospectus. The process generally begins by submitting a "notice of redemption" form to the issuer. Given the various steps in the process, transaction fees-and especially the large number of ETNs required to initiate a redemption (usually 25,000 or 50,000)-redemption is not generally a practical source of liquidity for most retail investors. If a redemption occurs, the issuer will redeem the notes at the ETN's indicative value.

Indicative values are generally based on the value of the underlying index or benchmark, minus certain fees (sometimes referred to as "daily investor fees"), which vary across ETNs and can fluctuate for a given ETN. ETNs also typically have an intraday indicative value that is calculated and published every 15 seconds during the trading day under the applicable trading symbol by the market in which the ETN trades. Each ETN uses its own formula for computing its indicative value, which is generally outlined in the ETN's prospectus or pricing supplement.

An ETN's closing indicative value, as well as its intraday indicative value, are distinct from an ETN's market price, which is the price at which an ETN trades in the secondary market. In theory, an ETN's market price should closely track its closing and intraday indicative values. However, an ETN's market price can deviate, sometimes significantly, from its indicative value. Price deviations can happen for a variety of reasons. For example, an ETN might trade at a premium to its indicative value if the issuer suspends issuance of new notes. Paying a premium relative to the indicative value to purchase the ETN in the secondary market-and then selling the ETN when the market price no longer reflects the premium-can lead to significant losses for an investor. This occurred when an ETN experienced price movement that diverged significantly from its indicative value and the performance of the index it tracks, due in part to suspensions in the issuance of new notes, which caused the ETN to trade at a significant premium-nearly 90 percent. When the issuer of the ETN resumed the issuance of new notes, the market price of the ETN fell sharply-dropping by more than half in two days. For this reason, before trading in the secondary market, it's a good idea to compare an ETN's closing and intraday indicative values with the market price. If the ETN is trading at a significant premium to its closing or intraday indicative value, you might want to consider similar products that are not trading at a premium, or that provide similar exposure to the index or asset class. It's also a good idea to ask whether the issuer has suspended issuing new notes, and if so, why.

CRYPTOCURRENCY-LINKED ETPs

Cryptocurrency linked ETPs are designed to provide exposure to one or more cryptocurrencies. These products may invest directly in cryptocurrencies by buying and selling them in the cash market, or they may invest in cryptocurrency futures contracts (or options on such futures contracts) by trading them on futures exchanges.

ETPs that trade cryptocurrencies on cash markets expose investors to risks associated with those markets, which may include:

• extreme price volatility;
• risk that these cash markets or specific cryptocurrencies may become illiquid;
• lack of regulation or supervision by a government agency;
• risk of manipulation; and
• a lack of critical system safeguards, which may give rise to risks associated with hacking or "flash crashes".

Cryptocurrency futures contracts are bought and sold using leverage. If the price of the futures contract moves in an unfavorable direction, the leveraged nature of the investment can produce large losses. Cryptocurrency futures contract prices are impacted by many of the same risks that are associated with prices in the cash markets. The use of leverage amplifies the impact of the occurrence of an adverse event in the cash markets and means that the same event may produce greater losses in an ETP that invested in cryptocurrency futures than an ETP that invested directly in the underlying cryptocurrency. But ETPs that invest in futures may not be subject to the same risks of loss related to hacking, or theft or loss of the cash cryptocurrency.

These characteristics, as well as the novelty of cryptocurrencies and cryptocurrency ETPs, subject investors in these products to a far greater risk of loss than is associated with ETPs that invest in traditional securities or commodities.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH COMPLEX OR LEVERAGED ETPS

Complex or Leveraged ETPs are complicated instruments that should only be used by sophisticated investors who fully understand the terms, investment strategy and risks associated with the funds. In particular, clients should be aware of certain specific risks involved. These risks include, but are not limited to:

Use of Leverage and/or Derivative Instruments: Many leveraged and inverse funds as well as volatility-linked products use leverage and derivative instruments, such as futures and options contracts, to achieve their stated investment objectives. As such, they can be extremely volatile and carry a high risk of substantial losses. Complex or Leveraged ETPs are considered speculative investments and should only be used by investors who fully understand the risks and are willing and able to absorb potentially significant losses.

Seek Daily Target Returns: Many Complex or Leveraged ETPs "reset" daily, meaning that they are designed to achieve their stated objectives on a daily basis. Due to the effect of compounding, the return for investors who invest for a period longer than one trading day may vary significantly from the stated goal as well as the target benchmark's performance. This is especially true in very volatile markets or if an ETP is tracking a very volatile underlying index. Investments in any ETP must be actively monitored on a daily basis and are typically not appropriate for a buy-and-hold strategy.

Higher Operating Expenses and Fees: Investors should be aware that these ETPs typically rebalance their portfolios on a frequent basis, often daily, in order to compensate for anticipated changes in overall market conditions. For example, volatility-linked ETPs will rebalance their exposure to futures of different maturities to maintain the targeted maturity. This rebalancing can result in frequent trading and increased portfolio turnover. These ETPs will therefore generally have higher operating expenses and investment management fees than other funds or products.

Tax Treatment May Vary: In many cases, Complex or Leveraged ETPs may generate their returns through the use of derivative instruments. Because derivatives are taxed differently from equity or fixed-income securities, investors should be aware that these ETPs may not have the same tax efficiencies as other funds or products.

Credit Risk: ETNs are unsecured debt obligations of the issuer. If the issuer defaults on the note, investors may lose some or all of their investment.

Market Risk: ETPs are market-linked: the value of an ETP is largely influenced by the value of the index it tracks or underlying investments it is based on. Make sure you understand what underlying or index is being tracked by the ETP-for example, some indices reflect a dynamic trading strategy and others are based on futures markets. Also, some indices reflect "total returns" while others may not.

Liquidity Risk. Although ETPs are exchange-traded, they do carry some liquidity risk. As with other exchange-traded products, a trading market may not develop. In addition, under some circumstances, issuers can delist an ETP. If this happens, the market for the ETP can dry up or evaporate entirely.

• Price-Tracking Risk. ETPs typically trade at prices that closely track their indicative values, but this might not always be the case. When trading in the secondary market, check market prices against indicative values, and be wary of buying at a price that varies significantly from closing and intraday indicative values.
• Holding-Period Risk. Some ETPs, particularly some leveraged, inverse and inverse leveraged ETNs, are designed to be short-term trading tools (with holding periods as short as one day) rather than buy-and-hold investments. Because of the effects of compounding, the performance of these products over long periods can differ significantly from the stated multiple of the performance (or inverse of the performance) of the underlying index or benchmark during the same period.
• Call, Early Redemption and Acceleration Risk. Some ETNs are callable at the issuer's discretion. In some instances ETNs can be subject to early redemption or an "accelerated" maturity date at the discretion of the issuer or one of its affiliates. Since ETNs may be called at any time, their value when called may be less than the market price that you paid or even zero, resulting in a partial or total loss of your investment.
• Conflicts of Interest. There are a number of potential conflicts of interest between you and the issuer of these products. For example, the issuer of ETNs may engage in trading activities that are at odds with investors who hold the notes (shorting strategies, for instance). Search the ETN's prospectus for any mention of "conflicts of interest" and evaluate whether these conflicts are worth the risk.

BEFORE YOU INVEST

Make sure you have answers to the following questions so that you can better assess whether an ETP investment is right for you:

• Who is the issuer? Once you know, be sure to research the issuer's credit rating and financial situation. If the issuer is publicly traded, use the SEC's EDGAR database. Keep in mind that for ETNs, they are not registered investment companies and therefore are not subject to the same registration, disclosure and other regulatory requirements as most ETFs or mutual funds.
• What index or benchmark does the ETP track? If it involves an unfamiliar market or asset class, ask yourself whether you feel informed enough about the market or asset to effectively assess the risks involved.
• Is the ETP callable by the issuer? You can find this out by reading the prospectus or asking your financial professional.
• Does the ETP offer leveraged or inverse exposure to the underlying index or benchmark? If so, how frequently does it "reset"? One clue may be in the ETP's name: words like "daily" and "short-term" often indicate that the product resets daily and is not intended to be held for long periods of time.
• What fees and costs are associated with the ETP? ETPs differ widely with respect to fees, including the investor fee charged in connection with redemptions. Read the prospectus and ask your investment professional to clearly explain any fees and expenses associated with a given ETN.
• What are the tax consequences? The tax treatment of ETPs can vary depending on the nature of the ETN. Check with your tax advisor if you are unsure about the tax implications of a particular investment.
  

Interactive Brokers Negative Contract Prices Risk Disclosure

Interactive Brokers ("IBKR") wishes to remind you of the risks associated with trading in the futures markets if the market moves against your futures positions. These risks may be particularly acute in those instances in which a futures contract settles at a negative price. The circumstances that lead a futures contract to settle at a negative price may vary. For example, a futures contract with a physical commodity as the underlying asset may settle at a negative price when the supply of the commodity faces physical constraints in distribution or storage to such an extent that some suppliers are prepared to pay others to physically take away the commodity. Futures contracts across other asset classes also may settle at negative prices for a number of reasons. Regardless of whether prices are positive or negative, you should keep in mind that if the market moves against your futures positions:

• You may sustain a total loss of the funds that you have deposited to establish or maintain your positions and may incur additional losses beyond these amounts;
• You may be called upon to deposit additional margin funds, on short notice;
• If you do not provide the additional funds within the time we require, your positions may be liquidated at a loss; and
• You will be liable for any resulting deficit in your account.

Risk Disclosure for Trading Digital Assets with Paxos Trust Company Through IBKR's Platform

Important Information Regarding Trading Digital Assets with Paxos

Interactive Brokers LLC ("IBKR") offers clients the ability to access digital asset trading and custody services (the "Paxos Services") in an account in client's name (the "Paxos Account") at Paxos Trust Company ("Paxos") through IBKR's electronic trading software. The digital assets in your Paxos Account are carried at Paxos while all other assets are carried in your IBKR account. Fiat currency is carried in your IBKR account and may also be carried in your Paxos Account if you designated that account as your source of payment for digital asset purchases pursuant to the Supplement to Interactive Brokers LLC Client Agreement in Connection with Trading Digital Assets with Paxos Trust Company Through IB’s Platform (“Payment Source Account”) and moved fiat currency into that account in anticipation of purchasing digital assets. You should carefully consider the risks below before making a decision to utilize the Paxos Services.

1. Trading Of Digital Assets is Risky. Digital asset prices are highly volatile and can rise or fall dramatically and quickly. If you hold a position in digital assets and the value of the asset falls, you can lose money. You should carefully consider your financial circumstances and your risk tolerance before trading digital assets with Paxos and you should not trade digital assets unless you have the financial capability to sustain losses if they occur. You should be aware that you may sustain a total loss of the assets in your Paxos Account.


2. No Investment Advice, Recommendations, Or Tax Advice. IBKR does not provide investment, tax, or trading advice or recommendations. By making digital assets available to you, neither IBKR nor Paxos makes any assessment, representation, or warranty concerning the appropriateness or suitability of digital assets for your financial circumstances. The Paxos Services are "execution only." IBKR and Paxos will not advise you on any transaction. Neither IBKR nor Paxos will assess whether your transactions are suitable for you or help you avoid losses. You should obtain your own financial, legal, taxation, and other professional advice as to whether digital assets are appropriate investments for you.


3. Digital Asset Holdings Are Not Covered By FDIC or SIPC. In general, US broker-dealers cannot custody non-securities digital assets. Therefore, US brokers seeking to offer their clients the ability to trade digital assets must work with another entity (a "Crypto Broker/Custodian") which is suitably licensed, and at which clients trading digital assets have separate accounts in their own name. These Crypto Broker/Custodians are not broker-dealers, and so SIPC coverage does not apply to accounts at Crypto Broker/Custodians. Likewise, most Crypto Broker/Custodians are not insured banks, and digital assets are not cash, so FDIC coverage does not apply to digital assets held in accounts at Crypto Broker/Custodians.
   
   IBKR has selected Paxos as the Crypto Broker/Custodian with which to work. By requesting trading permissions for digital assets through IBKR's platform, you are opening an account in your name at Paxos (the previously mentioned Paxos Account). All trading you do in digital assets through IBKR's platform will be executed in your Paxos Account (and not an account at IBKR), and Paxos will be your custodian and counterparty for those trades, which means that Paxos holds your digital assets for you and represents your ownership of them on their internal ledger. As explained above, the holdings in your Paxos Account are not protected by FDIC or SIPC insurance in the event of Paxos' or IBKR's insolvency.
   
   Notwithstanding the above, because IBKR is a member of the National Futures Association (the "NFA"), IBKR is required to provide you with the following disclosure in connection with trading digital assets / "virtual currencies":
   
   INTERACTIVE BROKERS LLC IS A MEMBER OF NFA AND IS SUBJECT TO NFA'S REGULATORY OVERSIGHT AND EXAMINATIONS. HOWEVER, YOU SHOULD BE AWARE THAT NFA DOES NOT HAVE REGULATORY OVERSIGHT AUTHORITY OVER UNDERLYING OR SPOT VIRTUAL CURRENCY PRODUCTS OR TRANSACTIONS OR VIRTUAL CURRENCY EXCHANGES, CUSTODIANS OR MARKETS.
   
   
4. Trading Hours May Be Limited; Paxos Web Interface; Stop Loss Orders. Digital assets generally trade 24/7, and their prices may change dramatically over the weekend. But your ability to access your Paxos Account through IBKR's platform, including purchasing or selling digital assets over the weekend, may be limited. Please visit IBKR's public website for additional detail on trading hour limitations.
   
   To mitigate this risk, Paxos will make available to you at https://ibkr.paxosclients.com/, on a best-efforts-basis, a separate web-based interface (the "Paxos Web Interface"). Through the Paxos Web Interface, you can view digital asset positions at any time, and you can place orders to close (or reduce) positions in digital assets at times when IBKR's platform is unavailable for trading. If you have designated your Paxos Account as your Payment Source Account, you may also place buy orders directly with Paxos through the Paxos Web App, subject to the requirement that buy orders must be fully funded (including commission) when placed.
   
   Paxos may offer stop and/or stop-limit orders (generally, "stop-loss orders") that you may choose to use to manage your risk, with respect to sudden decreases in the value of digital assets in your Paxos Account.
   
   A stop order is an order to buy or sell a digital asset once the price of the digital asset reaches a specified price (the "stop price"). When the stop price is reached, a stop order becomes a market order and can execute at any price (not necessarily at the stop price). A sell stop order is entered at a stop price below the current market price. Investors generally use a sell stop order to limit a loss or to protect a profit on a digital asset that they own.
   
   A stop-limit order is an order to buy or sell a stock that combines the features of a stop order and a limit order. Once the stop price is reached, a stop-limit order becomes a limit order that will be executed (if possible) at a specified price (or better). Like a regular limit order, stop-limit orders will only execute if there is liquidity at your limit price or a better price.
   
   In a quickly falling market, including in situations where many customers submit stop orders with a similar stop price, or when there is a lack of liquidity in the market, a stop order may execute a significant amount away from the specified stop price and a stop-limit order may not execute at all.
   
   Stop and stop-limit orders, while outstanding, are eligible to execute even outside of the times when IBKR's platform is available for trading.
   
   Using stop orders carries its own risks, including that your order may execute at an unfavorable price, and that the price of the digital asset may subsequently rise sharply above the level of the stop price, and you could lose money if you then reestablish your position at a price above the price at which you exited it as a result of your stop-loss order executing.
5. Digital Asset Purchases Must Be Fully Funded When Orders Are Submitted. You are responsible for ensuring that there is sufficient cash available in your designated Payment Source Account to fully fund your purchase of digital assets at the time you submit an order. If you have designated your Paxos Account as your Payment Source Account, you are responsible for transferring cash from IBKR to Paxos before placing a buy order. If you have designated your IBKR brokerage account as your Payment Source Account, IBKR will transfer cash from your IBKR brokerage account to Paxos when you execute a trade to purchase digital assets. Orders that are not fully funded will be rejected.


6. The Digital Asset Market Is Highly Speculative And Extremely Volatile. The market for digital assets can be extremely volatile. The price of digital assets may be influenced by, among other things, the performance of the economy as a whole; new or amended government regulation; the changing supply and demand relationships for digital assets; governmental, commercial and trade programs and policies; interest rates; technological developments; inflation; national and international political and economic events; statements by internet celebrities; social media sentiment; and the prevailing psychological characteristics of the relevant marketplace.


7. Digital Assets Custodied with Paxos Will Have No Margin Value In Your IBKR Account. The assets (whether digital or cash) custodied in your Paxos Account will not be assigned any margin value. Such digital assets will not be considered in determining your IBKR account's compliance with either securities or commodities margin requirements. If you have insufficient equity in your IBKR account to meet your margin requirements, the assets in your IBKR account may be liquidated.


8. Digital Assets Carry Liquidity Risk. Paxos is not obligated to provide quotes for digital assets at any time, and neither Paxos (nor IBKR) guarantee the continuous availability of quotations or trading for digital assets on Paxos' or any other digital asset exchanges. Paxos may in its sole discretion cease quoting digital assets and/or cease entering new digital asset transactions at any time.


9. You Will Pay Commissions For Trading Digital Assets. Paxos will charge commissions on your digital asset trades. For more details on the commissions, please see https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/index.php?f=1590.


10. Your Agreement with Paxos Governs Your Paxos Account. Your Paxos Account is governed by the Paxos Exchange Terms & Conditions ("Paxos T&Cs"). You should read the Paxos T&Cs carefully and understand the terms of your relationship with Paxos.


11. You Are Not Permitted To Short Digital Assets. Short sales of digital assets are prohibited. The inability to open short digital asset positions may negatively impact your ability to protect against trading losses.


12. The Digital Assets Available to You Are Limited and Subject to Change. The digital assets available for trading in your Paxos Account are limited. Paxos or IBKR may further limit the available digital assets to be traded on the IBKR platform at their own discretion and without prior notice to you. A complete list of available digital assets that may be purchased in your Paxos Account through IBKR's platform is available at https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/index.php?f=46390.


13. Risk Of Disruption Or Interruption Of Access To Paxos Account. Both IBKR and Paxos rely on computer software, hardware and telecommunications infrastructure and networking to provide their respective services to you, and without these systems neither can provide you with access to your respective accounts. These computer-based systems and services such as those used by Paxos are inherently vulnerable to disruption, delay or failure, which may cause you to lose access to the IBKR trading platform and thereby your Paxos account or may cause IBKR or Paxos not to be able to provide digital asset quotations or trading, or may negatively affect any or all aspects of Paxos' services. Under the IBKR Client Agreement, you accept the IBKR systems and services "As-ls" and IBKR's liability to you is limited.


14. Other Important Information Covered by Paxos Terms & Conditions. If at any time you wish to transfer some or all of your digital asset holdings in your IBKR-linked Paxos account out of your IBKR-linked Paxos account and into an independent Paxos account (from which you can then continue to freely trade such assets or transfer them to other addresses on the blockchain), please see the Paxos Terms & Conditions for instructions on how you may do so. In the event that IBKR ceases operations, Paxos will contact you to transfer the holdings in your IBKR-linked account to an independent account, in accordance with the Paxos Terms & Conditions.
